1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:05,370 But to get a dime back. Adam curry, John C. Dvorak. 2 00:00:05,520 --> 00:00:08,910 Sunday, May 12 2019. This is your award winning get my nation 3 00:00:08,910 --> 00:00:11,850 media assassination episode 1137. 4 00:00:11,969 --> 00:00:15,509 This is no agenda given by 5 00:00:15,570 --> 00:00:18,720 double digit dog biscuits and broadcasting live from the 6 00:00:18,720 --> 00:00:21,180 frontier of Austin, Texas Capitol the growing Star State 7 00:00:21,180 --> 00:00:23,700 in the morning, everybody. I'm Adam curry and from 8 00:00:23,700 --> 00:00:29,130 Northern Silicon Valley where I heard 12 2019 Maybe it's just 9 00:00:29,130 --> 00:00:32,610 me, I'm just eating Raglan Buzzkill. 10 00:00:34,020 --> 00:00:38,850 Now, what's this about? 12 2019 120? You said, What did 11 00:00:38,850 --> 00:00:41,610 I say? May 12 20 2019. 12 00:00:42,270 --> 00:00:44,730 You should sound like 12 2019. 13 00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:48,780 I didn't say Sunday. Here's the problem. I can't even hear 14 00:00:48,780 --> 00:00:56,370 myself today. But yeah, I've got so many, so many complaints 15 00:00:56,820 --> 00:01:00,150 about the feedback from my headphones to the microphone, 16 00:01:00,180 --> 00:01:03,240 which is because I can't wear my hearing aids with the 17 00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:09,660 headphones, that doesn't work at all. Just putting the audio 18 00:01:09,690 --> 00:01:15,210 directly into the hearing aids delivers an ever so slight 19 00:01:15,210 --> 00:01:17,370 delay, which is too annoying because it has to go through 20 00:01:17,370 --> 00:01:21,630 Bluetooth and all kinds of other crap. That's interesting. Yeah, 21 00:01:21,630 --> 00:01:25,260 it's like it's doable, but it's slight. And I still like the 22 00:01:25,260 --> 00:01:28,200 weight like immediate and I like the weight of the cans on my 23 00:01:28,200 --> 00:01:34,620 head, you know, what? type. So I had to choose between keeping it 24 00:01:34,620 --> 00:01:38,010 at 11. Because I haven't, you know, I have the output of the 25 00:01:38,220 --> 00:01:42,120 of the mixing system goes into a separate headphone amp just to 26 00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:46,950 jack up for my deafness. But then I'd have to tape the 27 00:01:46,980 --> 00:01:51,180 headphones to my head with masking tape. So nothing could 28 00:01:51,180 --> 00:01:55,350 leak. So I just decided to turn it down. So I don't know what I 29 00:01:55,350 --> 00:01:59,430 said honestly. Okay, yeah. Hopefully there'll be less 30 00:01:59,430 --> 00:02:01,470 feedback. And that will annoy people less. 31 00:02:03,540 --> 00:02:05,070 I never heard it. What? 32 00:02:06,660 --> 00:02:08,580 We're just gonna keep this going. You never heard what the 33 00:02:08,580 --> 00:02:12,030 feedback? Oh, it's constant. It's gotten much worse, since 34 00:02:12,030 --> 00:02:15,420 I've really been using the hearing aids a lot. And then 35 00:02:15,420 --> 00:02:18,090 when I take them out, and I put the headphones on, like, What? 36 00:02:18,780 --> 00:02:24,510 What? I can't hear. Yeah, but I just a number of people have 37 00:02:24,510 --> 00:02:29,580 noticed that. So thank you. Thank you. Thank you. So we'll 38 00:02:29,580 --> 00:02:31,560 see how we do. Yeah. 39 00:02:32,790 --> 00:02:34,530 To find out. 40 00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:40,020 Well, let's see, we start off with you know, I've already 41 00:02:40,049 --> 00:02:42,449 Mother's Day. Happy Mother's Day to you and your family. 42 00:02:42,449 --> 00:02:44,309 Everybody's family out there. Yeah, Happy 43 00:02:44,310 --> 00:02:47,730 Mother's Day to all the moms. That's right. You get a 44 00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:50,730 poor response to the newsletter and the Mother's Day promotion 45 00:02:50,730 --> 00:02:50,820 and 46 00:02:51,299 --> 00:02:53,879 someone said what you could do one of our producers sent in a 47 00:02:53,879 --> 00:02:57,149 note and said it's obvious why this happens because unlike you 48 00:02:57,389 --> 00:03:00,569 who have no moms and think that everyone else hates their mom 49 00:03:00,569 --> 00:03:04,349 for some reason. People are sending their money to their 50 00:03:04,349 --> 00:03:06,089 moms as gifts instead of to the 51 00:03:06,090 --> 00:03:09,090 show. I saw that note and that was that could be it. 52 00:03:10,230 --> 00:03:13,530 I think it's it's possible people are doing that. Although 53 00:03:13,530 --> 00:03:16,500 I don't know what could be better than a shout out on the 54 00:03:16,500 --> 00:03:20,250 best podcast in the universe for mom. Okay, flowers are nice too. 55 00:03:20,250 --> 00:03:23,550 But, you know, this will be around in some form long after 56 00:03:23,550 --> 00:03:26,880 we're all flowers die. So I'm reliably informed. 57 00:03:29,190 --> 00:03:30,660 So, yeah, so 58 00:03:30,660 --> 00:03:32,910 Happy Mother's Day. We do have some people who want to thank 59 00:03:32,910 --> 00:03:35,310 their moms so we'll be doing that in our donation segments. 60 00:03:37,410 --> 00:03:40,770 But you know, one of the highlights of my television year 61 00:03:41,820 --> 00:03:45,870 that I always look forward to watching is the European song 62 00:03:45,870 --> 00:03:48,030 contest the Eurovision Song Contest I 63 00:03:48,030 --> 00:03:51,540 should say yes seems like every year you talk about this thing 64 00:03:51,540 --> 00:03:51,750 because 65 00:03:51,750 --> 00:03:54,750 I'm always excited about it like the songs I like how all these 66 00:03:54,750 --> 00:03:57,210 countries compete has nothing to do with Europe. It's the Euro 67 00:03:57,210 --> 00:04:00,870 vision so you know Israel won last year. So this year 68 00:04:00,899 --> 00:04:04,619 what Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, 69 00:04:04,619 --> 00:04:08,099 whoa, whoa. Israel's not in Europe. 70 00:04:08,310 --> 00:04:13,860 It's the Euro evasion. We do this every year to you say so is 71 00:04:13,860 --> 00:04:17,250 your vision has nothing to do with the EU or Europe Europe. 72 00:04:17,820 --> 00:04:20,940 Oh, okay. Just it's just it's like one hour cleaners guy. 73 00:04:21,150 --> 00:04:25,020 Exactly. Exactly. Doesn't say why we're back in it's gonna 74 00:04:25,020 --> 00:04:25,770 take two days. Yeah, 75 00:04:25,770 --> 00:04:28,650 it's just the name of our players just to name just a 76 00:04:28,650 --> 00:04:34,200 name. Exactly Eurovision Israel won last year you remember was 77 00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:38,790 kind of a funky they tend to have some funky acts. And and 78 00:04:38,790 --> 00:04:42,690 they they swept everything and so now the contest which I think 79 00:04:42,690 --> 00:04:47,310 is the final is next week this weekend. We have semi finals all 80 00:04:47,310 --> 00:04:52,230 very exciting. But the Palestinians now calling for a 81 00:04:52,230 --> 00:04:57,030 boycott of course. You fight over your Hamas all the time and 82 00:04:57,060 --> 00:05:00,780 now we got a fight over songs in the Eurovision Song contest that 83 00:05:00,780 --> 00:05:02,100 this this will not stand 84 00:05:02,640 --> 00:05:08,280 the Palestinians calling for a boycott that that's going to 85 00:05:08,280 --> 00:05:08,850 close it. 86 00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:12,630 I don't know if they'll close it, but there's a lot of 87 00:05:12,630 --> 00:05:16,110 sympathy with the with the Palestinian plight which I 88 00:05:16,110 --> 00:05:19,860 discovered there is no country named Palestine. Yeah, yeah. 89 00:05:20,340 --> 00:05:22,620 Yeah and once you start looking into it, there was a good 90 00:05:22,620 --> 00:05:26,160 documentary I saw I was interested in you know, the two 91 00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:29,520 state solution, you know, the two state solution was that was 92 00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:33,420 the original idea is set forth by I think it was still League 93 00:05:33,420 --> 00:05:37,530 of Nations. That was that was the resolution this is meant to 94 00:05:37,530 --> 00:05:44,820 stay in place. And it never played out. Kind of so here we 95 00:05:44,820 --> 00:05:48,810 go. Then we have the artists calling for a boycott, why them 96 00:05:48,840 --> 00:05:53,700 some some immediate like PBS, for example. Some Yoku who 97 00:05:53,700 --> 00:05:58,830 believe there, you're in Europe. They never play this, this whole 98 00:05:58,830 --> 00:06:00,990 event in the US at all. Nobody cares. 99 00:06:01,020 --> 00:06:05,520 You know, there is one channel that carries it. It's and the 100 00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:09,060 thing about the Eurovision Song Contest, certainly in the 101 00:06:09,060 --> 00:06:12,960 Netherlands, but above all in the United Kingdom, who I don't 102 00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:16,770 think they've won since brotherhood of man did kisses 103 00:06:16,770 --> 00:06:22,350 for me. Which was when I was eight or nine. They'd have 104 00:06:22,380 --> 00:06:25,380 unfortunately passed away but Sir Terry Wogan who was a famous 105 00:06:25,380 --> 00:06:30,150 BBC Radio to presenter Yeah, he would do the voiceover and he 106 00:06:30,150 --> 00:06:34,320 would just sit there probably a little bit in the abbreviated if 107 00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:38,610 not slosh drunk and just make fun of everybody because the 108 00:06:38,610 --> 00:06:41,430 breaks always knew they'd never ever get in the final they never 109 00:06:41,430 --> 00:06:46,260 win. And and so now in the US to be worth watching it. Well, it 110 00:06:46,260 --> 00:06:49,680 was and now in the US we have what is the name of the channel 111 00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:53,880 that Univision now it's not Univision. It's something you 112 00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:59,010 have to think. Oh, no, no, it's not a real one. I'm sure it's on 113 00:06:59,010 --> 00:07:05,790 the Pluto TV. Now it'll be on it's something with a T but they 114 00:07:05,790 --> 00:07:08,700 get two gay guys to sit there and comment on everything which 115 00:07:08,700 --> 00:07:12,690 is perfect. You know can't be can't be gay guys. Like what 116 00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:18,480 Cooper and Anderson Cooper and what's his face? Andy Cohen and 117 00:07:18,900 --> 00:07:23,610 Andy Cohen always tried to do on New Year's Eve. And CNN only 118 00:07:23,610 --> 00:07:29,130 these guys pull it off cord TV. I think it's logo that's what it 119 00:07:29,130 --> 00:07:36,150 is logo. Logo broadcasts. It was wild. Man Iceland has a wah and 120 00:07:36,150 --> 00:07:40,500 we're like heavy metal kind of grunge crazy ass with all the 121 00:07:40,620 --> 00:07:45,930 frightening video clip. It's not your your your syrup syrupy. 122 00:07:46,530 --> 00:07:50,280 All you need to do is just put Katy Perry on the judges podium 123 00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:53,220 and then you'll have it made the adult ABCL carry it. 124 00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:56,400 Yeah, but see, now this is the beauty of the Eurovision Song 125 00:07:56,400 --> 00:08:00,330 Contest is there's a each country has its own professional 126 00:08:00,330 --> 00:08:02,790 judges and they vote in they're not allowed to vote on their own 127 00:08:02,790 --> 00:08:08,160 country. But then you have the text vote. And you know, and you 128 00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:11,520 see all the politics coming into play, you know, adjacent 129 00:08:11,520 --> 00:08:14,310 countries who will vote for each other you know, the if they 130 00:08:14,310 --> 00:08:17,220 don't like that country, then you know, everyone hates Russia, 131 00:08:17,220 --> 00:08:19,680 so they don't vote for them except for the countries that do 132 00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:22,890 love Russia. So it's just it's a wonderful evening. Apparently 133 00:08:22,890 --> 00:08:24,120 logo stopped doing it. 134 00:08:24,719 --> 00:08:30,119 Yeah. So much for your theory. Damn, it is ridiculous. I do 135 00:08:30,119 --> 00:08:33,629 think it could be when you mentioned Terry Wogan just 136 00:08:34,199 --> 00:08:37,439 ragging on it. I think I've watched that 137 00:08:37,500 --> 00:08:41,430 you and I could do this actually. We could do it 138 00:08:41,429 --> 00:08:43,529 ragged, as much as anybody. Well, 139 00:08:43,530 --> 00:08:46,770 we could do a good job. I think it'd be fun to have you just 140 00:08:46,770 --> 00:08:51,600 been like, what is this? What country? Is this country? 141 00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:51,900 Where's 142 00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:53,010 Katy Perry? 143 00:08:55,260 --> 00:08:59,970 I could see. All right, well, I'll see if anyone is carrying 144 00:08:59,970 --> 00:09:00,090 it. 145 00:09:00,300 --> 00:09:03,390 Next year. This would be a big event. We can do a little TV. 146 00:09:03,420 --> 00:09:10,980 This is our exit strategy. Hey, I'm all for it. Let me see if we 147 00:09:11,010 --> 00:09:14,790 Hey, how about this, let me see if we can get a feed that 148 00:09:14,790 --> 00:09:17,910 everyone will be watching the eagle feed illegal feed. And 149 00:09:17,910 --> 00:09:20,970 then and then we'll just pop on our stream and we'll just 150 00:09:21,210 --> 00:09:23,910 provide commentary. You can sit on the couch while you do it. 151 00:09:24,300 --> 00:09:28,470 Now we got to do it on video. It has to be video. 152 00:09:29,130 --> 00:09:32,040 We can't We can't we just provide it. I see what you're 153 00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:34,380 saying. Yeah, it has to be synced with the video but we 154 00:09:34,380 --> 00:09:38,610 don't have to be on camera. No, 155 00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:39,780 no, no, I was 156 00:09:39,780 --> 00:09:43,530 thinking more like spacetime science 3000 with the two of our 157 00:09:43,530 --> 00:09:49,350 shadows in front you know or silhouettes of our heads. It may 158 00:09:49,350 --> 00:09:50,490 be a third head 159 00:09:50,520 --> 00:09:54,060 think that's complicating an already well thought out format. 160 00:09:54,060 --> 00:09:56,610 Just do the voiceover you don't need to do anything else. It 161 00:09:56,610 --> 00:09:57,930 was what how did Wogan do it? 162 00:09:57,990 --> 00:10:00,510 He just voiceover he was just in the background. He was never 163 00:10:00,870 --> 00:10:04,170 shown that the video feed. Yeah, just get a video feed and then 164 00:10:04,500 --> 00:10:06,720 you and I will just rag on it complicated later. Wait a 165 00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:12,030 minute. Wait a minute. I think this is I think this is it this 166 00:10:12,030 --> 00:10:13,830 weekend. That's the that's the wedding weekend. 167 00:10:15,150 --> 00:10:17,220 And also the canceled 168 00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:23,310 either that or we can sit in my studio and do it live together. 169 00:10:24,990 --> 00:10:26,250 Yeah, man wedding. 170 00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:30,720 Maybe not. Maybe not. All right. Well, I've determined there is 171 00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:31,950 no news in America. 172 00:10:32,730 --> 00:10:34,710 Oh, I got plenty of really? 173 00:10:35,310 --> 00:10:40,830 Let me guess. Barbone mula drowned by the last go something 174 00:10:40,830 --> 00:10:42,690 like that. Yeah. The news you caught. 175 00:10:44,250 --> 00:10:46,260 I didn't understand that. Where you said when you 176 00:10:46,410 --> 00:10:49,590 tried to? I'll try it again. Barbara Mueller. Tromba. 177 00:10:49,620 --> 00:10:52,860 No, no, I only have one actually from that whole thing. Okay. 178 00:10:52,890 --> 00:10:55,680 Even though I promise clips, I got nothing. I got to wonder to 179 00:10:55,680 --> 00:10:59,670 as kind of intersection probably flipped this. Okay. We're gonna 180 00:10:59,880 --> 00:11:03,120 clip it. We'll play that then. It's a gold mark on the coup on 181 00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:07,650 the Nadler committee. Oh, he calls it a coup. Yeah, nice. Now 182 00:11:07,650 --> 00:11:13,830 this committee majority is on the wrong side, have a very 183 00:11:14,220 --> 00:11:20,190 important historic time. We've never had the intelligence 184 00:11:20,190 --> 00:11:28,950 community, the FBI, people at the top of the DOJ abusing their 185 00:11:28,950 --> 00:11:36,120 powers to create a case against a president where there was 186 00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:42,330 none. Where assets were actually used to try to set up members of 187 00:11:42,330 --> 00:11:47,970 the Trump campaign. When there was no case to try to create a 188 00:11:47,970 --> 00:11:51,660 case we ought to be all over that we ought to be demanding 189 00:11:51,660 --> 00:11:59,820 answers from the FISA judge or judges who were either a content 190 00:12:00,180 --> 00:12:06,450 to have fraud committed against their courts, or, or complicit, 191 00:12:06,660 --> 00:12:10,500 maybe it was Peter struck buddy that he bragged about in his 192 00:12:10,500 --> 00:12:15,210 decks that was going to be the face a judge that signed 193 00:12:15,780 --> 00:12:22,620 warrants where there was no probable cause of anything. This 194 00:12:22,620 --> 00:12:26,850 was an attempted coup and history is bringing that into 195 00:12:26,850 --> 00:12:29,220 focus more and more clearly. 196 00:12:29,460 --> 00:12:34,170 And this is very dumb idea to call this a coup. No, because 197 00:12:34,170 --> 00:12:38,220 it's not the definition of a coup involves the military. Even 198 00:12:38,220 --> 00:12:41,430 an attempted coup d'etat the textbook definition involves 199 00:12:41,430 --> 00:12:42,270 military 200 00:12:43,230 --> 00:12:45,600 I don't think it does. Oh, okay. 201 00:12:45,630 --> 00:12:46,680 Do we need to 202 00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:51,120 okay 203 00:12:52,560 --> 00:12:55,350 let's take a look I can of course be wrong because after 204 00:12:55,350 --> 00:12:57,120 all I'm just a VJ it's a 205 00:12:57,120 --> 00:12:59,280 you get your coach can be wrong because you're deaf 206 00:12:59,609 --> 00:13:05,999 what it literally is like that a bit Okay, let's see book of 207 00:13:05,999 --> 00:13:09,539 knowledge what do we have here coup sudden violent and illegal 208 00:13:09,539 --> 00:13:13,859 seizure of power from government so it needs to be sudden 209 00:13:13,859 --> 00:13:14,789 violent. 210 00:13:15,330 --> 00:13:16,770 There was no military mentioned 211 00:13:18,030 --> 00:13:21,600 the true but it has to it has to have that to be violence. 212 00:13:22,290 --> 00:13:24,060 So there was no cool look up soft 213 00:13:25,830 --> 00:13:29,250 soft coup Well I think the coup is still ongoing if you want to 214 00:13:29,250 --> 00:13:33,030 take it in my literal sense with the the military Bloomberg did 215 00:13:33,030 --> 00:13:38,040 an interview with General Kelly I have no idea why he feels he 216 00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:40,920 should be talking at all but okay. Especially the 217 00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:44,160 guy that used to be Chief of Staff Yeah, Bloomberg is he 218 00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:47,280 doing walking? Yeah he's gonna guys are the what kind of people 219 00:13:47,280 --> 00:13:49,140 do we have running the mill This is what happens when you don't 220 00:13:49,140 --> 00:13:53,490 have like a major war and all that kind of lousy players move 221 00:13:53,490 --> 00:13:56,820 to the top so just happened in World War Two where you had all 222 00:13:56,820 --> 00:13:59,640 these boneheads running everything's like the the head 223 00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:03,360 of the Navy and second, nav second. The rest of them were 224 00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:07,290 all let the ship after ship was being knocked out on the east 225 00:14:07,290 --> 00:14:12,090 coast by German U boats. No, no, I was an accident. It was just 226 00:14:12,090 --> 00:14:16,020 ridiculous to watch these these. These incompetence run things 227 00:14:16,020 --> 00:14:18,750 until they finally got thrown out so they get somebody so 228 00:14:18,750 --> 00:14:19,920 you'd win the damn thing. 229 00:14:19,949 --> 00:14:24,569 I thought Kevin Lee was revered within the armed services. I 230 00:14:24,570 --> 00:14:28,380 couldn't be sure I'm sure that's what he says. And he wasn't the 231 00:14:28,380 --> 00:14:31,110 Chief of Staff revered he shouldn't be out yakking away 232 00:14:31,110 --> 00:14:33,930 about his about his ex experiences boss was still in 233 00:14:33,930 --> 00:14:36,720 office. Well, worse. He was irresponsible. Worse. I 234 00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:40,650 think he's propagating a coup by talking about what needs to 235 00:14:40,650 --> 00:14:43,230 happen with the president's family. The team we 236 00:14:43,230 --> 00:14:48,120 became as a White House staff built on what Ryan's previous, 237 00:14:48,450 --> 00:14:52,020 my predecessor and a great guy built on what he was trying to 238 00:14:52,020 --> 00:14:54,720 do and for that 18 months we staff the President very 239 00:14:54,720 --> 00:14:57,660 effective was a complicated to have the president's family in 240 00:14:57,810 --> 00:15:02,940 the government at the time. They're, they're very influenced 241 00:15:02,940 --> 00:15:06,090 that has to be has to be dealt with. And 242 00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:11,820 I don't know how that sounded to you. So I'm listening to this 243 00:15:11,820 --> 00:15:13,770 clip. Like to to the head 244 00:15:13,770 --> 00:15:14,790 right there well, 245 00:15:14,820 --> 00:15:19,020 and he actually says he's he's going to qualify that which I 246 00:15:19,020 --> 00:15:21,480 thought Oh wait, no, you're gonna backpedal on this but no, 247 00:15:21,510 --> 00:15:25,860 it has to be. It has to be dealt with. And today if you were I 248 00:15:25,860 --> 00:15:30,060 don't mean I by no means you need Mrs. Trump. First Lady's a 249 00:15:31,260 --> 00:15:33,060 wonderful person. This 250 00:15:33,060 --> 00:15:35,580 fantastic I thought it was gonna say no, I don't mean like kill 251 00:15:35,580 --> 00:15:38,880 them or anything you know? No, he meant kill them, but Melania 252 00:15:38,880 --> 00:15:40,800 is okay. She can stay she's good. 253 00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:47,370 Yeah, you need it. Firstly, I thought that was just that was 254 00:15:47,370 --> 00:15:50,910 pretty revealing to be dealt with. I mean, it's the if Trump 255 00:15:50,910 --> 00:15:54,570 could trust these guys like rants, Priebus who was the 256 00:15:54,570 --> 00:16:03,720 leaker he great guy, Karina Kelly. Okay. Guys, they're all 257 00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:05,670 really not be out. As I 258 00:16:05,670 --> 00:16:09,030 said, there's no news about, although I did, I did pick up an 259 00:16:09,030 --> 00:16:16,020 interesting clip from a podcast. This is Oh, yeah, this is member 260 00:16:16,020 --> 00:16:17,280 Sebastian Gorka. 261 00:16:17,969 --> 00:16:20,879 And we're still around. Yeah. Oh, yeah. I thought he was a 262 00:16:20,879 --> 00:16:21,689 podcast. 263 00:16:22,589 --> 00:16:25,949 I thought he was gone. Because some I guess he got I remember 264 00:16:25,949 --> 00:16:27,899 he left the administration and 265 00:16:28,530 --> 00:16:29,490 slipped dangerous. Yeah. 266 00:16:29,790 --> 00:16:31,860 Was it conflict was that while he left, there was some 267 00:16:31,860 --> 00:16:34,980 conflict. He it was his turn. And they were raking over the 268 00:16:34,980 --> 00:16:37,860 coals for B and you know, of course, obviously, he's a white 269 00:16:37,860 --> 00:16:41,220 supremacist from support Nazi Quadroon. Obviously, we all know 270 00:16:41,220 --> 00:16:45,630 this. Anyone who hangs out with Trump has got to be a Nazi. Um, 271 00:16:45,630 --> 00:16:50,250 so he has a podcast and he had, I think it's Victoria toensing. 272 00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:55,740 quite sure what she does. And my favorite Digenova Joe Digenova, 273 00:16:55,740 --> 00:16:58,140 who you know, has, has all this great stuff 274 00:16:58,140 --> 00:17:03,510 seems to have taken kind of a turn for the best on this show 275 00:17:03,510 --> 00:17:07,740 he has. And I want to say this is funny, because at least six 276 00:17:07,740 --> 00:17:10,140 months ago, I had a bunch of Digenova stuff and a lot of it 277 00:17:10,140 --> 00:17:10,410 is 278 00:17:10,619 --> 00:17:12,719 and I didn't like it. And I didn't like it at the time, I'm 279 00:17:12,719 --> 00:17:14,369 sure or No, 280 00:17:14,369 --> 00:17:18,119 no, I actually cut most of I didn't use a lot of it. Because 281 00:17:18,359 --> 00:17:22,619 he he's too long winded. But he's really great when it comes 282 00:17:22,619 --> 00:17:25,799 to coming up with crazy ideas that are never going to come to 283 00:17:25,799 --> 00:17:27,899 fruition about what's going to happen. 284 00:17:27,930 --> 00:17:30,420 Well, this is an interesting one, because it again, it's 285 00:17:30,420 --> 00:17:33,660 about Papadopoulos and how they were trying to set Papadopoulos 286 00:17:33,690 --> 00:17:37,440 up. And as you and I both know, having traveled internationally, 287 00:17:37,440 --> 00:17:41,580 there's a limitation on how much cash you can take into the 288 00:17:41,580 --> 00:17:45,570 country or bring into the country which ran $10,000. And 289 00:17:45,570 --> 00:17:48,750 that's, that's an it's an inlet, unless you declare it, you know, 290 00:17:48,750 --> 00:17:51,990 that's okay. But it's a huge pain in the butt to declare it 291 00:17:51,990 --> 00:17:55,080 and why do you need more than 10 grand in cash to travel anyway, 292 00:17:55,650 --> 00:18:00,060 but they tried to use this on Papadopoulos. Remember, this is 293 00:18:00,060 --> 00:18:04,980 kind of the dumbest guy who has the, the hot Italian lawyer 294 00:18:04,980 --> 00:18:09,600 wife, who stuck with him through all of this spice law business. 295 00:18:09,870 --> 00:18:12,300 So I don't know about their relationship, but they seem they 296 00:18:12,300 --> 00:18:15,810 seem pretty good together. And I guess she helped him out of a 297 00:18:15,810 --> 00:18:18,330 potentially nasty situation. You have 298 00:18:18,330 --> 00:18:22,110 an incredible story, Victoria, about how this man I wish 299 00:18:22,110 --> 00:18:25,740 I was Sebastian Gorka. I could just talk like this. The 300 00:18:25,740 --> 00:18:27,390 Charlaine you have any 301 00:18:29,820 --> 00:18:33,240 podcast? He is the voice cast? 302 00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:38,730 Broadcasting? Yes. Um, do tell me is Bastian can you ask the 303 00:18:38,730 --> 00:18:39,840 question? You have 304 00:18:39,840 --> 00:18:43,530 an incredible story, Victoria, about how this man do you 305 00:18:43,530 --> 00:18:47,070 like that bottom and he's got that Victoria. He's got it. He's 306 00:18:47,070 --> 00:18:48,960 got some going on. He's got some processing. 307 00:18:48,990 --> 00:18:53,160 You have an incredible story, Victoria, about how this man who 308 00:18:53,160 --> 00:18:57,480 was targeted by our intelligence communities, they try to sting 309 00:18:57,660 --> 00:18:59,880 right, what happened to George papadopolis 310 00:18:59,909 --> 00:19:03,269 After he was put on the Trump campaign as a foreign policy 311 00:19:03,269 --> 00:19:06,479 adviser unpaid I mean, very informal. He only met the 312 00:19:06,479 --> 00:19:09,419 president one time at a meeting with a bunch of people. He was 313 00:19:09,419 --> 00:19:13,199 vacationing with his fiancee in Greece. And this guy comes and 314 00:19:13,199 --> 00:19:16,679 tars starts knocking at his door basically to say, hey, I really 315 00:19:16,679 --> 00:19:19,349 want to deal with you. You're now very important that a lot. 316 00:19:19,649 --> 00:19:21,329 And so will you just come to Israel? 317 00:19:21,659 --> 00:19:28,799 Stop. Is that is this isn't Camille Paglia No, no, no, it's 318 00:19:29,160 --> 00:19:30,540 Victoria Tounsi. 319 00:19:31,500 --> 00:19:34,230 Oh, she's just got the same cadence. I'm just going with 320 00:19:34,230 --> 00:19:37,440 mill you just pointed out okay. This is the milieu of the 321 00:19:37,440 --> 00:19:40,800 lesbian libertarian. Oh, 322 00:19:41,070 --> 00:19:42,360 well, let's take a look at her 323 00:19:44,760 --> 00:19:48,150 Paglia does constantly besides having that exact same clip 324 00:19:48,150 --> 00:19:52,560 speech. She says stuff like, you know, in the middle of things. 325 00:19:52,920 --> 00:19:59,310 Yeah. Oh, well, hold on this. No wonder Victoria Antoon Singh is 326 00:19:59,310 --> 00:20:04,800 a lawyer and partner were their husband, Joe Digenova. That's 327 00:20:04,800 --> 00:20:09,240 the husband and wife team here. I didn't know that. I'm gonna 328 00:20:09,240 --> 00:20:12,720 see where she comes from Anglia, but well look, but she still 329 00:20:12,720 --> 00:20:16,170 could be a lesbian. Could be that was your 330 00:20:16,679 --> 00:20:21,359 lesbian libertarian meal you doesn't mean you might be in the 331 00:20:21,359 --> 00:20:22,769 middle you but you don't have to be a lesbian. 332 00:20:22,799 --> 00:20:24,779 Right? Right. Right. Okay, well, let's continue, 333 00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:28,830 starts knocking at his door basically to say, hey, I really 334 00:20:28,830 --> 00:20:31,200 want to deal with you, you're now very important that a 335 00:20:31,200 --> 00:20:34,260 little. And so we just come to Israel and talk to me about 336 00:20:34,260 --> 00:20:37,020 making a deal and why can you talk now we'll know your niche 337 00:20:37,020 --> 00:20:40,140 and user quota here Israel, the guy takes him to his hotel room, 338 00:20:40,320 --> 00:20:44,940 and there on the bed is $10,000 in cash in a suitcase $10,000 339 00:20:44,940 --> 00:20:48,240 just yet, so I'll make it short. 340 00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:51,810 It's very smart and says, it says 341 00:20:51,810 --> 00:20:52,470 don't do it. 342 00:20:52,500 --> 00:20:56,190 Leave it here. They left it in Greece with his lawyer, he flew 343 00:20:56,190 --> 00:21:00,750 back to Dallas and the second he landed, the FBI surrounded him 344 00:21:00,750 --> 00:21:04,620 and started searching everything that he had. And in fact, they 345 00:21:04,620 --> 00:21:07,200 already had his baggage from the plane. He couldn't leave 346 00:21:07,860 --> 00:21:10,170 baggage. It was a complete setup, 347 00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:12,870 because he didn't have it. There was no tent that there was no 348 00:21:12,870 --> 00:21:15,540 $10,000. But they knew that he hadn't declared it when he 349 00:21:15,540 --> 00:21:15,870 entered the 350 00:21:15,870 --> 00:21:17,850 United States. So he hadn't declared it. So we're going to 351 00:21:17,850 --> 00:21:22,050 nab it. They say we got him now the thumbscrews on squeal, 352 00:21:22,080 --> 00:21:24,930 and one FBI agent said to him, this is what happens when you 353 00:21:24,930 --> 00:21:28,440 work for Donald Trump. Nice. Nice. 354 00:21:28,679 --> 00:21:29,669 I believe that's true. 355 00:21:29,700 --> 00:21:34,770 I believe that to be true. That's true. So that was a smart 356 00:21:34,770 --> 00:21:42,060 move. By the way, I'd be like 10 grand. Ben cheapass. Where's the 357 00:21:42,060 --> 00:21:44,940 hooker? Yeah, grand 100 grand and where's the hookers? Man? 358 00:21:44,940 --> 00:21:49,230 Don't you know how this works is inflation to write some dumb 359 00:21:49,230 --> 00:21:53,730 report. So that's the only kind of interesting news in the any 360 00:21:53,730 --> 00:21:57,900 collusion files that I've found. What I did find rather fun is I 361 00:21:57,900 --> 00:22:01,200 have a little flashback. Do you remember Eric Holder? Do we 362 00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:03,450 remember who he is? Who he was? 363 00:22:04,470 --> 00:22:07,860 Nuts? Of course we do. He's the Fast and Furious guy who's got 364 00:22:07,920 --> 00:22:10,560 called up for contempt of Congress. Yes. He 365 00:22:10,560 --> 00:22:13,350 was held in contempt. That's correct. Eric Holder was the 366 00:22:13,380 --> 00:22:16,860 attorney general, held in contempt. I think it took a 367 00:22:16,860 --> 00:22:20,190 while before they actually voted on holding him in contempt of 368 00:22:20,190 --> 00:22:20,880 Congress 369 00:22:21,510 --> 00:22:24,990 make much difference because the local da at the time who has to 370 00:22:25,410 --> 00:22:29,850 do if there's going to be any, any real legal action. He was a 371 00:22:30,870 --> 00:22:34,470 staunch Obama supporter. He wasn't gonna go anywhere with 372 00:22:34,470 --> 00:22:34,590 it. 373 00:22:34,620 --> 00:22:37,320 Yeah, there was a couple other things besides the gunrunning, 374 00:22:37,350 --> 00:22:40,290 which was known as fast and furious that was arresting 375 00:22:40,290 --> 00:22:44,730 journalists, spying on journalists, we have such short 376 00:22:44,730 --> 00:22:48,630 memories than the M five M even shorter doesn't seem to recall 377 00:22:48,630 --> 00:22:52,680 that. But I do have a couple of sound bites, little copy laws, 378 00:22:52,680 --> 00:22:56,760 if you will, of the mainstream back when we are talking about 379 00:22:56,760 --> 00:23:00,000 contempt of Congress of an attorney general, except this 380 00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:04,140 was the Obama Attorney General, given what we know about the 381 00:23:04,140 --> 00:23:06,660 Republican Party and the way the House of Representatives 382 00:23:06,660 --> 00:23:09,510 conducts itself when run by Republicans and with a Democrat 383 00:23:09,510 --> 00:23:12,390 in the White House. It shouldn't really count as news when a 384 00:23:12,390 --> 00:23:15,060 House committee finds the democratic Attorney General in 385 00:23:15,060 --> 00:23:16,380 contempt of Congress, every 386 00:23:16,380 --> 00:23:19,770 single Republican voted to hold the attorney general in contempt 387 00:23:19,920 --> 00:23:22,320 over this crazy conspiracy theory 388 00:23:22,350 --> 00:23:26,550 tell the Republicans to stop this witch hunt now. He's right 389 00:23:26,580 --> 00:23:29,040 why go ahead with a contempt vote book. There 390 00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:31,980 are certain internal documents that are not Congress's 391 00:23:31,980 --> 00:23:32,430 business. 392 00:23:33,180 --> 00:23:37,740 Why just looks like more of our broken politics and vicious 393 00:23:37,740 --> 00:23:38,460 fights now 394 00:23:38,460 --> 00:23:41,160 out in the open a party in the Congress that does just about 395 00:23:41,160 --> 00:23:44,070 nothing to create jobs or to help people without jobs decided 396 00:23:44,070 --> 00:23:46,890 the best way to do their job is to shower the Obama 397 00:23:46,890 --> 00:23:48,180 administration with subpoenas. 398 00:23:48,210 --> 00:23:50,670 See, if you're a person who watches Fox news all day, it is 399 00:23:50,670 --> 00:23:53,220 possible that you have been marinating in this conspiracy 400 00:23:53,220 --> 00:23:56,430 theory for long enough now that this seems feasible. 401 00:23:57,180 --> 00:24:00,210 Was this sort of stop and frisk at the highest level? Who at the 402 00:24:00,210 --> 00:24:03,000 Attorney General given the empty his pockets it looks like stop 403 00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:05,490 and frisk does it let me finish with my personal views of the 404 00:24:05,490 --> 00:24:08,310 stop and frisk thing? And I don't mean to use this term too 405 00:24:08,310 --> 00:24:10,620 much but it's almost like a stop and frisk for a lot 406 00:24:10,620 --> 00:24:12,780 of people. This is Republican versus Democrat and they say 407 00:24:12,780 --> 00:24:14,850 this is just theater it amounts to nothing 408 00:24:14,880 --> 00:24:19,740 it is a distraction it is politics writ large in in 409 00:24:19,740 --> 00:24:21,360 Washington according to most people 410 00:24:21,390 --> 00:24:24,480 this is really much more to be filed in the category of 411 00:24:24,480 --> 00:24:26,100 politics than law this 412 00:24:26,100 --> 00:24:29,550 is contempt Kabuki This is a classic case in Washington of 413 00:24:29,550 --> 00:24:31,500 where you stand as a matter where you sit when the 414 00:24:31,500 --> 00:24:34,140 Republicans have the White House that love executive privilege. 415 00:24:34,590 --> 00:24:36,030 I like contempt Kabuki. 416 00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:41,610 I'd like yeah I like a contempt Kabuki too there was something 417 00:24:41,610 --> 00:24:44,100 else in there liked it was well, 418 00:24:44,669 --> 00:24:48,989 of course my point obviously is that people this is the same 419 00:24:49,019 --> 00:24:51,749 shit just different team. It's wrestling. 420 00:24:53,100 --> 00:24:54,660 Yeah, WWE II 421 00:24:54,690 --> 00:24:56,970 Yeah. Without the without the cool suits. 422 00:24:58,560 --> 00:25:02,010 Yeah, and the guy would do with that guy. Have you got Gohmert 423 00:25:02,250 --> 00:25:04,410 instead of talking like this 424 00:25:04,560 --> 00:25:09,720 Gohmert Beto could be one of the Mexican terror twins, right? 425 00:25:09,720 --> 00:25:12,120 That's, I'm confusing them. I'm sure. I don't know much about 426 00:25:12,120 --> 00:25:17,130 wrestling. Yeah. It's exactly the same. Exactly the same 427 00:25:17,130 --> 00:25:20,340 stuff. Now. It's just the other party's yelling the same. Fox 428 00:25:20,340 --> 00:25:23,220 News is now saying what these guys were saying. Although Fox 429 00:25:23,220 --> 00:25:26,400 News man, something's, something's very odd with them. 430 00:25:26,910 --> 00:25:29,400 They are going well, they're going off message style, they're 431 00:25:29,400 --> 00:25:30,570 going off message. 432 00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:36,900 The going a loser audience doing this, by the way, I used to 433 00:25:37,080 --> 00:25:42,090 present a concise, it's like to watch and Shields and Brooks. 434 00:25:42,120 --> 00:25:45,090 Yeah, I mean, shields Imbros. This was to be, you know, 435 00:25:45,090 --> 00:25:47,580 supposed to give us two sides of an argument. No, no, they're 436 00:25:47,580 --> 00:25:50,310 both in total agreement. And then who wants to watch them? I 437 00:25:50,310 --> 00:25:53,190 mean, I do have a contract. I got a good example. This is a 438 00:25:53,190 --> 00:25:57,360 summary of the latest shields Brooks and shield summary on 439 00:25:57,360 --> 00:26:01,770 PBS, subpoenas for the president's son subpoenas for 440 00:26:01,770 --> 00:26:05,580 the attorney general. What do we make of all this? 441 00:26:05,610 --> 00:26:09,060 Well, I mean, we I think it's the House Banking Committee, 442 00:26:10,380 --> 00:26:20,250 across the board, and now led by that I just thank God that ran 443 00:26:21,060 --> 00:26:26,700 in Venezuela. I mean, it's just but this end for the into the 444 00:26:26,730 --> 00:26:29,520 this isn't the system wasn't intended for this. I mean, 445 00:26:29,580 --> 00:26:31,320 you know, it's a complete breakdown of the checks and 446 00:26:31,320 --> 00:26:32,160 balances system. 447 00:26:32,310 --> 00:26:34,590 I smelled the vortex razor blade in 448 00:26:34,590 --> 00:26:38,040 this this place. That's the way it goes. No, he 449 00:26:38,040 --> 00:26:42,900 talks like that. No, yeah. I don't believe it. I have a 450 00:26:42,900 --> 00:26:46,980 different example of Fox News. Just I don't know. This is 451 00:26:46,980 --> 00:26:50,760 specifically Tucker Carlson. And I think he may. I don't know 452 00:26:50,760 --> 00:26:55,680 he's compromised, but not not in the way you would think. He had 453 00:26:55,680 --> 00:26:59,880 Andrew Yang on. Now, Andrew Yang is is we're focusing on him 454 00:26:59,880 --> 00:27:03,090 because we get complaints that we don't that no one focuses on. 455 00:27:05,040 --> 00:27:05,670 We'd love to 456 00:27:05,670 --> 00:27:08,460 get no money. I mean, I'm surprised he gets as much 457 00:27:08,460 --> 00:27:10,500 airtime as he does where a guy with no money. 458 00:27:10,620 --> 00:27:14,580 Well, we love his PowerPoint idea of State of the Union on 459 00:27:14,580 --> 00:27:17,730 PowerPoint. And that's that's, that's his slogan for this year, 460 00:27:17,730 --> 00:27:23,490 PowerPoint, PowerPoint. He is the man who on Joe Rogan was 461 00:27:23,490 --> 00:27:26,340 talking about the universal basic income being the way to 462 00:27:26,340 --> 00:27:31,350 go. And now he has a new Gambit, which he rolled out on Tucker 463 00:27:31,350 --> 00:27:36,060 Carlson, I was, well wasn't surprising to hear this from a 464 00:27:36,060 --> 00:27:40,440 Democratic primary candidate. It was surprising to hear Tucker 465 00:27:40,440 --> 00:27:44,010 Carlson all in on these this idea I have standing in this 466 00:27:44,010 --> 00:27:48,420 particular area, having lived in multiple countries with this 467 00:27:48,420 --> 00:27:51,660 particular situation. And I thought it was interesting that 468 00:27:51,660 --> 00:27:55,350 Fox again, is moving away from their core message. I don't know 469 00:27:55,350 --> 00:27:58,380 if a lot of people in America understand what this is really 470 00:27:58,380 --> 00:28:01,740 about or what it really means. But the way it's presented is 471 00:28:02,010 --> 00:28:03,210 I'm curious at best. 472 00:28:03,240 --> 00:28:05,850 And Amazon's the most egregious example where they're now 473 00:28:05,850 --> 00:28:09,150 soaking up $20 billion in business and causing 30% of 474 00:28:09,150 --> 00:28:12,000 American malls and stores to close and taxpayers are seeing 475 00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:16,200 zero in return. So if you look at what other advanced economies 476 00:28:16,200 --> 00:28:18,780 have done, they figured this out, they've said, Look, we need 477 00:28:18,780 --> 00:28:21,960 to have a mechanism in place that Amazon's gonna pay its fair 478 00:28:21,960 --> 00:28:24,900 share along with Netflix and delta, these other companies 479 00:28:24,900 --> 00:28:27,240 that are paying zero in taxes. So what they've done is a book, 480 00:28:27,240 --> 00:28:29,280 can you guess? Can you guess? 481 00:28:30,630 --> 00:28:33,480 A government regulate? Amazon? 482 00:28:33,510 --> 00:28:37,110 No, no, it's better? Well, in a way. Yeah. Actually, yes, in a 483 00:28:37,110 --> 00:28:37,830 way, if adopted 484 00:28:37,830 --> 00:28:44,040 a value added tax, where then the Americans stay with it, tiny 485 00:28:44,040 --> 00:28:47,400 slice of every Amazon sale every Google search and on and on. And 486 00:28:47,400 --> 00:28:49,500 it's very, very hard for companies like Amazon to game 487 00:28:49,500 --> 00:28:50,130 their way out of, 488 00:28:50,459 --> 00:28:52,769 we're actually gonna roll that back for a second because He 489 00:28:52,769 --> 00:28:54,149 literally says here, 490 00:28:55,740 --> 00:28:57,630 Dell Deltan, these other companies that are paying zero 491 00:28:57,630 --> 00:29:00,210 in taxes, what they've done is they've adopted a value added 492 00:29:00,210 --> 00:29:04,620 tax, where then the American people would get a tiny slice of 493 00:29:04,620 --> 00:29:06,180 every Amazon sale every 494 00:29:06,390 --> 00:29:12,480 No, this is the this is a lie. This is a scam. This is well, 495 00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:15,780 I'm gonna play the whole clip, but a value added tax. He's 496 00:29:15,780 --> 00:29:19,230 saying, Oh, the American people will get a piece of that. Yeah, 497 00:29:19,230 --> 00:29:24,060 after you pay all of it. So here's his brilliant idea. Let 498 00:29:24,060 --> 00:29:27,720 me see I'm gonna pay this value added tax, and I'll get 10% of 499 00:29:27,720 --> 00:29:31,800 it back in services. That sounds like a great deal. Yeah, no, 500 00:29:32,040 --> 00:29:33,510 but to get a dime back, 501 00:29:34,650 --> 00:29:37,020 Google search and on and on, and it's very, very hard for 502 00:29:37,020 --> 00:29:39,990 companies like Amazon to game their way out of a value added 503 00:29:39,990 --> 00:29:44,820 tax system. So why don't we have that? Oh, it's a great question. 504 00:29:45,270 --> 00:29:45,630 People. 505 00:29:48,300 --> 00:29:53,040 Just listen to it for a sec. We could stop it every 10 Second 506 00:29:53,040 --> 00:29:53,460 companies 507 00:29:53,460 --> 00:29:56,670 like Amazon to game their way out of a value added tax system. 508 00:29:57,390 --> 00:29:59,010 So why don't we have that? 509 00:29:59,700 --> 00:30:02,130 Oh, It's a great question. I mean, people have been 510 00:30:02,370 --> 00:30:06,030 advocating for it for quite some time. And my campaign is 511 00:30:06,030 --> 00:30:08,850 advocating and championing it right now. Because we need to 512 00:30:08,850 --> 00:30:11,490 wise up to the fact that companies like Amazon are very 513 00:30:11,490 --> 00:30:15,420 smart, and moving their earnings through places like Ireland, 514 00:30:15,420 --> 00:30:17,820 where the American taxpayer will see none of it. Whereas the 515 00:30:17,820 --> 00:30:21,240 value added tax will make it impossible for them to sell to 516 00:30:21,240 --> 00:30:25,320 us without paying into our society, their fair share, as if 517 00:30:25,320 --> 00:30:28,500 they're going to be paying that fair share. This is so great, 518 00:30:28,500 --> 00:30:31,920 the way he's explaining it, and Tucker buys it. So why 519 00:30:31,920 --> 00:30:35,670 are you the only candidate who's thinking through what to do 520 00:30:35,670 --> 00:30:36,450 about this? 521 00:30:37,200 --> 00:30:39,900 Yeah, well, we already answered that question. And it gets kind 522 00:30:39,900 --> 00:30:40,350 of weird. 523 00:30:40,830 --> 00:30:43,260 I think it's weird. Again, all you have to do is look around 524 00:30:43,260 --> 00:30:45,360 the world and say, other countries, other advanced 525 00:30:45,360 --> 00:30:48,090 economies have figured this out, we're the only advanced economy 526 00:30:48,090 --> 00:30:52,140 that does not have a value added tax in place. And we need to 527 00:30:52,140 --> 00:30:54,450 make sure that the American people are actually seeing some 528 00:30:54,450 --> 00:30:58,080 of the gains from the incredible innovation and value that 529 00:30:58,080 --> 00:31:01,380 companies like Amazon, and Salesforce, and Netflix, all of 530 00:31:01,410 --> 00:31:05,160 whom paid zero in taxes last year, are getting away with 531 00:31:05,190 --> 00:31:07,770 really, and they're doing their job, which is to pay as little 532 00:31:07,770 --> 00:31:10,680 in taxes as possible, you have to do our job, which is to make 533 00:31:10,680 --> 00:31:12,690 it to the American people see our fair share. 534 00:31:13,290 --> 00:31:16,350 So does that mean just to argue the other side for a second? 535 00:31:16,650 --> 00:31:20,070 Would that increase? And presumably would increase the 536 00:31:20,070 --> 00:31:22,200 cost to American consumers of goods? Right? 537 00:31:22,230 --> 00:31:26,100 Yes. Well, in some instances, in some cases, the companies will 538 00:31:26,100 --> 00:31:29,310 find cost efficiencies or eat part of it. And that's one 539 00:31:29,310 --> 00:31:33,090 reason why my campaign wants to take that money that we're 540 00:31:33,090 --> 00:31:35,220 getting from the value added tax and return it to the American 541 00:31:35,220 --> 00:31:37,650 people in the form of a dividend. Because that's the 542 00:31:37,650 --> 00:31:40,500 most direct way that we can actually have the American 543 00:31:40,500 --> 00:31:44,970 people benefit. The fear is that even if we do end up increasing 544 00:31:44,970 --> 00:31:48,120 the tax rate on some of these companies, people won't benefit 545 00:31:48,120 --> 00:31:49,560 from that. Andrew Yang, 546 00:31:50,070 --> 00:31:52,500 certainly the most interesting person running for president and 547 00:31:52,500 --> 00:31:54,450 I thought sounds like a great idea to me. I appreciate 548 00:31:54,480 --> 00:31:59,130 that's a great idea. There you go. Great idea. Let's enlighten 549 00:31:59,160 --> 00:32:03,750 Mr. Carlson about the value added tax, which I lived under 550 00:32:03,750 --> 00:32:09,390 in the Netherlands and Belgium and the United Kingdom the tax 551 00:32:09,420 --> 00:32:11,610 the value added tax in the Netherlands when I was there, I 552 00:32:11,610 --> 00:32:14,640 think it's still either 20 or 21% 553 00:32:15,660 --> 00:32:19,020 and you pay for that much off the top but yeah, everything you 554 00:32:19,020 --> 00:32:19,380 buy 555 00:32:19,410 --> 00:32:22,890 and it's an added tax so it's not built in 556 00:32:22,920 --> 00:32:26,190 yet the word added in there. That's the thing he took her 557 00:32:26,190 --> 00:32:28,830 shirt is that well, it's another words more taxes 558 00:32:28,830 --> 00:32:33,150 Yes. And you consumer you pay for it. And here's the problem 559 00:32:33,150 --> 00:32:37,620 with the value added tax. If you add that if you start down that 560 00:32:37,620 --> 00:32:43,050 road, it'll be okay everybody, great idea of 5% value added 561 00:32:43,050 --> 00:32:47,880 tax. And somehow just like the carbon tax in Canada Navia it'll 562 00:32:47,880 --> 00:32:51,180 come back to you magically. Alright, so we're paying that 563 00:32:51,180 --> 00:32:56,190 and you know what happens in two years? Everybody, we've got to 564 00:32:56,220 --> 00:32:59,490 get our money, no shortfall here. We need to up that value 565 00:32:59,490 --> 00:33:02,070 added tax just a bit. Don't worry. It's really the company's 566 00:33:02,070 --> 00:33:05,730 paying for it. Don't you worry about some good, bad ideas. 567 00:33:05,730 --> 00:33:07,500 10% 1015 568 00:33:07,530 --> 00:33:13,200 I'm amazed. I'm amazed how he can back this. There's clearly a 569 00:33:13,200 --> 00:33:14,280 right wing alright. 570 00:33:14,730 --> 00:33:18,630 What drew me that Tucker doesn't travel that much as he probably 571 00:33:18,630 --> 00:33:22,020 doesn't. I don't know. I think about I don't know that he's 572 00:33:22,020 --> 00:33:25,530 ever talked about any other countries ever. You may go down 573 00:33:25,530 --> 00:33:27,600 to Cancun and that's about it. Listen, 574 00:33:27,630 --> 00:33:31,350 we grew up watching this guy and he was wearing a bowtie so you 575 00:33:31,350 --> 00:33:34,410 know, you don't travel anywhere if you were one of those. Not 576 00:33:34,410 --> 00:33:37,260 unless you unless you're a professor and you're visiting 577 00:33:37,260 --> 00:33:38,520 scholar somewhere 578 00:33:38,610 --> 00:33:39,630 and the publisher. 579 00:33:42,300 --> 00:33:45,780 I put him up the same level as my, you know, as Christopher 580 00:33:45,780 --> 00:33:50,640 Buckley, my ex cousin in law, whatever it was that kind of 581 00:33:50,640 --> 00:33:54,120 guy. Yeah, he know that internet. Adam, who was going to 582 00:33:54,120 --> 00:33:57,570 want to read the newspaper on the on a computer screen? 583 00:33:57,870 --> 00:33:58,650 Yes, No. 584 00:34:00,090 --> 00:34:02,820 i Okay. I have an AOL address. But that's all I'm doing. I'm 585 00:34:02,820 --> 00:34:09,060 just keeping it at that. Christopher Buckley douche. So 586 00:34:09,240 --> 00:34:12,900 that is the media landscape. It's changing rapidly where we 587 00:34:12,900 --> 00:34:16,590 have a guy like Yang promoting this and it's a this sounds like 588 00:34:16,590 --> 00:34:17,670 a great idea. 589 00:34:18,030 --> 00:34:20,790 That sounds good. Again, it's like soccer. 590 00:34:21,990 --> 00:34:26,820 Now I do want to point out I've had down on my notes. I want to 591 00:34:26,850 --> 00:34:29,400 make a prediction do still have a red book. We haven't looked in 592 00:34:29,400 --> 00:34:30,660 the Red Book in a long time. 593 00:34:31,290 --> 00:34:33,870 I gave up on it because I realized I can't read my own 594 00:34:33,870 --> 00:34:37,650 writing. I think that 14 long 595 00:34:37,650 --> 00:34:40,200 track of these so you can predict what you want. Okay. 596 00:34:41,159 --> 00:34:45,569 I believe that football let's just call it instead of soccer. 597 00:34:45,929 --> 00:34:53,729 Football, I think is going to be extremely big on US television, 598 00:34:53,969 --> 00:34:58,769 but it will only will be women's football. There's something 599 00:34:58,799 --> 00:35:02,039 about this that is especially our team, the United States team 600 00:35:02,039 --> 00:35:07,289 who all cute. There's something about this that is going places. 601 00:35:08,369 --> 00:35:10,889 That's my prediction. I think you'll see with 602 00:35:10,890 --> 00:35:15,720 joy women's when I was in Croatia a few years back. We 603 00:35:15,720 --> 00:35:19,290 were talking about this and they graduation said well, we 604 00:35:19,290 --> 00:35:23,490 understand that football is very popular in the United States but 605 00:35:23,520 --> 00:35:28,470 only amongst women. And women T is only women teams men no play 606 00:35:28,470 --> 00:35:31,740 it isn't it isn't our day when they said I'm not going to 607 00:35:31,740 --> 00:35:34,710 correct them. I said no, you're absolutely right. Men do not 608 00:35:34,710 --> 00:35:40,350 play soccer as we call it. It's only played by women. And that's 609 00:35:40,380 --> 00:35:43,200 just the way it is in our country and it's for women only 610 00:35:43,259 --> 00:35:47,159 now. We have a really good team though don't we? Yeah, I'll 611 00:35:47,160 --> 00:35:50,400 do World Champs. Yeah, yeah, we have great women's soccer 612 00:35:50,400 --> 00:35:50,880 players. 613 00:35:51,089 --> 00:35:54,059 Well, I want to promote them. I think we should I'm 614 00:35:54,060 --> 00:35:56,220 looking at the list and by the way just to back up a little bit 615 00:35:56,220 --> 00:35:58,950 look at the list of value added tax and remembering it starts 616 00:35:58,950 --> 00:36:03,210 always starts off like at five or 10% Right now in Hungary it's 617 00:36:03,210 --> 00:36:04,920 27% 618 00:36:04,950 --> 00:36:07,650 Geez, I thought they harmonized that the EU everyone had to have 619 00:36:07,650 --> 00:36:08,550 20 Oh no, they're 620 00:36:08,550 --> 00:36:14,700 all different. Really? Norway is 25% 25% 25% 621 00:36:14,970 --> 00:36:18,120 I remember back when I had money in an airplane. It's like yeah, 622 00:36:18,120 --> 00:36:21,270 I want new avionics I said okay, well it's gonna be I was like 623 00:36:21,420 --> 00:36:24,630 8000 euros or something like wow it's a lot of money but okay, 624 00:36:24,660 --> 00:36:29,790 cool. Oh book there's 21% Value Added Tax like what you just 625 00:36:29,790 --> 00:36:35,070 threw on 2000 to 2000 euros just for dive now. It may it drives 626 00:36:35,070 --> 00:36:41,610 you nuts I'm looking at these other numbers 627 00:36:42,750 --> 00:36:47,160 25% for the far Fargo islands is everybody's this is crazy 628 00:36:47,490 --> 00:36:53,610 to have no agenda logo on the on the team uniform. That'd be 629 00:36:53,610 --> 00:36:57,210 cool. We can make it happen I mean this 630 00:36:57,240 --> 00:36:58,920 when you're traveling people should notice when you're 631 00:36:58,920 --> 00:37:01,320 traveling if you get your receipts where everything you 632 00:37:01,320 --> 00:37:03,900 buy this over a few bucks yeah, you can get your ticket to the 633 00:37:03,900 --> 00:37:07,890 airport. Yep, your value added tax and get your money back up. 634 00:37:09,330 --> 00:37:12,690 Yes. Which is not always convenient. 635 00:37:12,780 --> 00:37:15,270 Now it's not always convenient and the people who are sitting 636 00:37:15,270 --> 00:37:18,630 there also don't mean especially with the people in France I 637 00:37:18,630 --> 00:37:21,510 think I bought a pair of glasses in France because I broke my 638 00:37:21,510 --> 00:37:25,050 glasses got a new pair and then one went to retrieve the VAT and 639 00:37:25,050 --> 00:37:29,400 it just it just mean and rude. What you want in France that's a 640 00:37:29,400 --> 00:37:34,140 shock Yeah, I know what a thunk it it's crazy 641 00:37:36,720 --> 00:37:40,800 Okay, so now Yang is on my list of anyone even worthwhile 642 00:37:41,610 --> 00:37:45,330 anytime anyone brings up the value added tax and especially 643 00:37:45,330 --> 00:37:48,810 when they throw the bowl crap at you like he did which is just 644 00:37:48,810 --> 00:37:52,470 all advanced economies use the value added. 645 00:37:52,830 --> 00:37:55,170 Yeah, the smart ones have it 646 00:37:56,040 --> 00:37:57,870 Yeah. Yeah, cuz 647 00:37:58,980 --> 00:38:02,610 mind you that you know that VAT also gets tacked on to medical 648 00:38:02,610 --> 00:38:05,010 costs medical procedures. Oh, yeah. 649 00:38:05,040 --> 00:38:10,740 It's an added it's where's the value? I like this value added 650 00:38:10,740 --> 00:38:18,450 tax. It really should be just called an added tax. Yes. Dummy 651 00:38:18,450 --> 00:38:23,550 tags. So here's a thing I picked up on one of the networks that 652 00:38:23,550 --> 00:38:27,120 just kind of a rundown. You know, they really do want Biden 653 00:38:27,120 --> 00:38:31,590 to run they think he can win. Yeah. And so here's the classic 654 00:38:31,590 --> 00:38:34,590 rundown a Biden rundown of what's going on with Biden and 655 00:38:34,590 --> 00:38:38,640 Who's this from which outlet? You know, I forgot to write it 656 00:38:38,640 --> 00:38:43,170 down but it goes to Zephyr. It's one of the Oh, an extra car 657 00:38:43,170 --> 00:38:49,230 today. The one of the networks 658 00:38:49,260 --> 00:38:53,640 from the minute Joe Biden sets foot onto the campaign trail, he 659 00:38:53,640 --> 00:38:58,140 is the person to beat. The question is whether one of these 660 00:38:58,170 --> 00:39:02,910 19 other candidates emerges as his chief adversary or whether 661 00:39:02,940 --> 00:39:06,120 his biggest obstacle will be Joe Biden himself. 662 00:39:06,240 --> 00:39:10,860 The T shirt knows a lot about it his mama lived in in Long Island 663 00:39:10,860 --> 00:39:16,440 for 10 years or so. God rest her soul and although she's Wait, 664 00:39:16,440 --> 00:39:21,600 your mom's still, your mom's still alive. God bless her soul 665 00:39:21,870 --> 00:39:25,260 is now the front runner because he is a household name. 666 00:39:25,380 --> 00:39:29,160 They put one foot in front of the other. They keep going. 667 00:39:29,850 --> 00:39:34,410 That's the unbreakable spirit of the people of America. And also 668 00:39:34,410 --> 00:39:40,170 he brings a much broader set of policy experiences to the table 669 00:39:40,200 --> 00:39:42,600 than really any other candidate. 670 00:39:42,630 --> 00:39:47,100 I believe we have so botched this policy, so botched the 671 00:39:47,100 --> 00:39:53,220 opportunities to move on the Sandinista government, the SNL 672 00:39:53,640 --> 00:39:57,510 the scandal. We need not tell anyone is the biggest white 673 00:39:57,510 --> 00:40:02,310 collar rip off in this nation's history judge. If I look only at 674 00:40:02,310 --> 00:40:05,160 what you've said and written as used to happen in the past, I 675 00:40:05,160 --> 00:40:06,270 would have to vote no. 676 00:40:06,450 --> 00:40:10,680 For all the respect that he is given as the elder statesman. If 677 00:40:10,680 --> 00:40:15,720 you look back at Joe Biden's previous races, his 1988 bid 678 00:40:15,720 --> 00:40:21,510 flamed out in the middle of a plagiarism scandal in 2008, he 679 00:40:21,540 --> 00:40:28,380 won exactly 4% of the vote in the Iowa caucuses. There is a 680 00:40:28,380 --> 00:40:31,110 lack of message discipline, 681 00:40:31,830 --> 00:40:37,440 Vice President of the United States of America. Joe Biden, 682 00:40:37,980 --> 00:40:42,870 I remember in the 2008 campaign after the Obama team put him on 683 00:40:42,870 --> 00:40:47,550 the ticket at a fundraiser late in the campaign, he went so far 684 00:40:47,580 --> 00:40:52,860 as to apocalyptically almost predict there would be a major 685 00:40:52,860 --> 00:40:57,540 international crisis. This was one of those moments tailor made 686 00:40:57,540 --> 00:40:59,670 for a Saturday Night Live parody. 687 00:41:00,780 --> 00:41:04,740 Words, if you take away nothing else, from what I say here 688 00:41:04,740 --> 00:41:08,640 today, or indeed in this entire campaign, remember this. If 689 00:41:08,640 --> 00:41:12,840 Barack Obama is elected, we will have a crisis. 690 00:41:15,990 --> 00:41:21,810 I'll give Joe Biden credit for one thing. He dragged Hillary 691 00:41:21,810 --> 00:41:28,890 Clinton and Barack Obama into a same sex marriage. You remember 692 00:41:28,890 --> 00:41:34,260 that? No. Yes, it was. Obama was going to come out and announce 693 00:41:34,320 --> 00:41:38,790 the policy on maybe a Monday or Tuesday and then on some some 694 00:41:38,790 --> 00:41:43,650 interview, but it was it was a problem because he was basically 695 00:41:43,650 --> 00:41:46,650 the guy that on an interview, and Matt posted with Robin, I 696 00:41:46,650 --> 00:41:50,100 think, from Good Morning America. Robbins was, and he 697 00:41:50,100 --> 00:41:52,680 said, Oh, no, I think same sex marriage should do. It should be 698 00:41:52,680 --> 00:41:55,590 okay. And he just went all in on it, which we had. And this was 699 00:41:55,590 --> 00:41:58,320 shocking. At the time, no one had heard of what are you? This 700 00:41:58,320 --> 00:42:01,680 is from the White House. And then, and then Obama and 701 00:42:01,680 --> 00:42:04,170 Hillary, they immediately had to kind of jump on and say, Oh, 702 00:42:04,170 --> 00:42:06,960 yes, yes, yes. We've changed our views on this. And that was Joe 703 00:42:06,960 --> 00:42:11,190 Biden, who dragged them into that by basically jumping into 704 00:42:11,190 --> 00:42:13,680 the announcement, which he wasn't even supposed to do in 705 00:42:13,680 --> 00:42:14,550 the first place. 706 00:42:15,120 --> 00:42:19,110 Yeah, he does a lot of that. Yeah. I consider that bumbling 707 00:42:19,140 --> 00:42:22,080 well, he plays it off his bumbling. I think he's a lot 708 00:42:22,080 --> 00:42:25,020 smarter than we might give them credit for in that regard. 709 00:42:25,230 --> 00:42:28,050 Well, that's a possibility. But gates, the guy who was used to 710 00:42:28,050 --> 00:42:33,360 be in the CIA and whatever, and he was in the various staffs of 711 00:42:33,360 --> 00:42:38,220 the Obama administration, who wrote this book, if you recall. 712 00:42:40,080 --> 00:42:42,360 Pretty much about the Obama administration said everything 713 00:42:42,360 --> 00:42:45,150 Biden did was just everything he did was wrong. 714 00:42:47,250 --> 00:42:51,570 Well, the only reason why he's being picked up on top right now 715 00:42:51,570 --> 00:42:53,760 is because he's got the money. You know, when you raise 716 00:42:53,760 --> 00:42:57,960 $700,000, in one night, then the news media is like, Hey, Joe, 717 00:42:58,560 --> 00:43:01,410 how you doing? Let's do another interview. So you can buy some 718 00:43:01,410 --> 00:43:06,510 ads. It's their money. They see that as their money. Who's got 719 00:43:06,510 --> 00:43:09,300 the money? The Biden's grabs our money, let's go get that money. 720 00:43:09,540 --> 00:43:15,120 And then they go on. Monday. No, wait Monday. Yes, Monday night. 721 00:43:15,540 --> 00:43:18,480 Watch what happens with man. Are you okay? 722 00:43:18,779 --> 00:43:19,979 I'm having a lozenge. 723 00:43:21,330 --> 00:43:27,150 When Beto is going to reintroduce himself. I am 724 00:43:27,150 --> 00:43:30,060 reading from the Associated Press, O'Rourke plans to step up 725 00:43:30,060 --> 00:43:33,360 his national media appearances after skipping most of that kind 726 00:43:33,360 --> 00:43:37,200 of exposure in recent months. He is scheduled to appear on MSNBC 727 00:43:37,200 --> 00:43:40,440 is Rachel Maddow Show on Monday night and ABC is the view the 728 00:43:40,440 --> 00:43:45,210 next day. O'Rourke acknowledges he struggled to find his 729 00:43:45,210 --> 00:43:46,860 presidential campaign footing. 730 00:43:47,610 --> 00:43:49,470 Sounds like he struggled to find a good Booker. 731 00:43:50,220 --> 00:43:52,680 I think in part I was just trying to keep up when I first 732 00:43:52,680 --> 00:43:55,380 started out, he said after addressing about 40 people at a 733 00:43:55,380 --> 00:43:58,650 recent house party in Newton, Iowa. I really feel like I found 734 00:43:58,650 --> 00:44:01,620 my rhythm and my pace. I just feel comfortable. I feel like 735 00:44:01,620 --> 00:44:05,790 this is what I'm supposed to be doing. It's my calling. Spread 736 00:44:05,790 --> 00:44:11,310 ball and butter. So we'll see. 737 00:44:11,549 --> 00:44:14,459 And he's lost so much momentum and when you hear him 738 00:44:16,140 --> 00:44:18,660 he's dumb. It's just dumb. Well, he 739 00:44:18,660 --> 00:44:22,290 also has the tries to sound like Obama at that pacing and is 740 00:44:22,290 --> 00:44:24,660 waving it sounds like he's doing an Obama. 741 00:44:24,840 --> 00:44:28,110 But, you know, all you hear him say is we've got to do you know, 742 00:44:28,110 --> 00:44:30,480 comprehensive this reform that 743 00:44:31,050 --> 00:44:33,540 impeach the president at least at least Yang 744 00:44:33,570 --> 00:44:35,730 at least Yang is saying oh, we're gonna do a value added 745 00:44:35,730 --> 00:44:38,910 tax. Oh, go to Universal Basic Income. He's not saying oh, we 746 00:44:38,910 --> 00:44:41,790 should No, he's at least he's saying something. Elizabeth 747 00:44:41,790 --> 00:44:44,610 Warren still the favorite amongst the graduating class. We 748 00:44:44,610 --> 00:44:49,500 just got one back here. Done with the with four years in 749 00:44:49,500 --> 00:44:53,850 Arkansas, liking what Elizabeth Warren has to say feels somewhat 750 00:44:53,850 --> 00:44:58,230 cheated scammed by the system. Everyone's talking about Liz. 751 00:44:58,260 --> 00:45:02,130 Hey, y'all want to don't care about anything, just take this 752 00:45:02,130 --> 00:45:06,030 debt off of my books. She's got a real shot with that. 753 00:45:06,060 --> 00:45:09,630 She's making sure she's got that and to promise she's got 754 00:45:09,630 --> 00:45:12,840 something. She's got stuff like this, too. She has too much. 755 00:45:12,870 --> 00:45:16,530 She's creating problems for herself with play my Warren clip 756 00:45:16,620 --> 00:45:20,160 in this op ed comes just weeks after a Massachusetts senator 757 00:45:20,160 --> 00:45:23,550 and 2020 Hopeful Elizabeth Warren unveiled a plan to break 758 00:45:23,550 --> 00:45:27,540 up tech giants including Facebook, Google, and Amazon. 759 00:45:27,570 --> 00:45:31,590 Oh, yeah, she has no focus this. She's an idiot. She has no focus 760 00:45:31,590 --> 00:45:34,170 she had she has something going on with these kids who are all a 761 00:45:34,170 --> 00:45:38,160 voting age. They probably won't vote. You know, these were the 762 00:45:38,160 --> 00:45:41,940 BETO voters who didn't really come out in Texas. Yeah, for 763 00:45:41,940 --> 00:45:42,540 sure. 764 00:45:42,930 --> 00:45:43,770 Too much work. 765 00:45:43,860 --> 00:45:45,540 Yeah, but yeah, I'm 766 00:45:45,540 --> 00:45:46,650 finishing my game here. 767 00:45:46,680 --> 00:45:52,230 But if you've got 30 or $40,000 in in, in student loan debt, I 768 00:45:52,230 --> 00:45:55,050 think I can go to the poll and vote for you listen, yeah, 769 00:45:55,050 --> 00:45:57,780 maybe but I got Facebook. No, 770 00:45:57,810 --> 00:46:02,220 no, I disagree. These kids are also moving away from Facebook. 771 00:46:02,430 --> 00:46:05,250 They're moving away from social media now they had no they they 772 00:46:05,250 --> 00:46:07,170 actually have to do they're getting dogs. 773 00:46:08,550 --> 00:46:14,700 My dog won't let me go. Down idea of breaking up the tech 774 00:46:14,700 --> 00:46:18,240 giants besides being scatterbrained is like wait a 775 00:46:18,240 --> 00:46:21,900 minute, these are the guys who got all the money. And you're 776 00:46:21,900 --> 00:46:24,780 good, you know, so you're gonna turn on you're gonna bust up 777 00:46:24,810 --> 00:46:29,100 Amazon, Jeff Bezos owns the Washington Post. Hello, hello, 778 00:46:29,370 --> 00:46:30,180 knock knock 779 00:46:31,080 --> 00:46:34,110 you? Well, I'm against. I'm against all of this. I'm against 780 00:46:34,110 --> 00:46:37,620 all of these the breakup ideas, because I see the internet as a 781 00:46:37,620 --> 00:46:42,480 network that anyone can access and anyone can use whatever, you 782 00:46:42,480 --> 00:46:46,410 know, freely available protocols there are to distribute your 783 00:46:46,410 --> 00:46:51,270 information. And I don't think necessarily Facebook and Twitter 784 00:46:51,270 --> 00:46:55,770 and Instagram are the internet. And that's what people believe. 785 00:46:55,770 --> 00:47:00,600 But it's not true. It's not it's nice. Just not true. So true. So 786 00:47:00,600 --> 00:47:03,360 let let these guys wallow in their own shit. That's fine. I 787 00:47:03,360 --> 00:47:08,160 don't need to use them. But anyone who participates in this, 788 00:47:08,730 --> 00:47:11,250 in this breakup conversation is giving him too, too much 789 00:47:11,250 --> 00:47:14,340 credence. It doesn't know what the internet is. It's, you're 790 00:47:14,340 --> 00:47:17,040 looking at the America Online version of the internet. 791 00:47:17,220 --> 00:47:20,190 That's what you're talking about Elizabeth Warren and all these 792 00:47:20,190 --> 00:47:23,550 other people, you don't even know how to turn on a computer? 793 00:47:23,580 --> 00:47:26,250 Well, I think that's pretty sure they can do that, you 794 00:47:28,080 --> 00:47:31,560 know, Hey, Bill, can you turn on my computer? I don't know how to 795 00:47:31,560 --> 00:47:35,880 do it. I'm pretty sure that's what's going on. It's that round 796 00:47:35,880 --> 00:47:36,300 button. 797 00:47:39,360 --> 00:47:42,570 There's a lot of different things that are problematic for 798 00:47:42,600 --> 00:47:45,930 for people in government. They, for instance, have you been 799 00:47:45,930 --> 00:47:46,920 tracking Bitcoin? 800 00:47:48,390 --> 00:47:50,880 No, I don't follow Bitcoin that closely. 801 00:47:51,060 --> 00:47:55,290 Well, going back to, I think November, November last year, 802 00:47:55,380 --> 00:48:00,420 the prices dropped from around $6,300 down to a low of just 803 00:48:00,420 --> 00:48:07,230 above 3000. Right. And now. And if you look today, I can look 804 00:48:07,230 --> 00:48:11,820 right now. But last I checked, it was over 7000. And if you've 805 00:48:11,820 --> 00:48:15,870 ever looked at a at a stock chart, it looks like the longest 806 00:48:16,050 --> 00:48:19,590 bear Surrett bear trap I've ever seen in my life. And that's 807 00:48:19,590 --> 00:48:24,000 actually down a bit now since 68. But it was up to as high as 808 00:48:25,080 --> 00:48:32,520 almost 7400 which is higher than it was when the drop happened. 809 00:48:32,520 --> 00:48:37,140 And this is causing concern for a lot of people and certainly in 810 00:48:37,170 --> 00:48:43,110 in government. This is Congressman Sherman. And he has 811 00:48:43,110 --> 00:48:44,910 a he has only one way to go for this. 812 00:48:44,970 --> 00:48:49,830 I look for colleagues to join with me in introducing a bill to 813 00:48:50,550 --> 00:48:57,840 outlaw cryptocurrency owner purchases by Americans so that 814 00:48:57,840 --> 00:49:00,900 we nip this in the bud in part because 815 00:49:01,500 --> 00:49:07,200 I love to nip it in the bud Hello 10 years. Hey, there's 816 00:49:07,200 --> 00:49:10,110 something to this Bitcoin shit. We should nip that in the bud. 817 00:49:10,500 --> 00:49:12,000 Let me write up a bill for y'all. 818 00:49:12,240 --> 00:49:18,360 In part because not a awful lot of our international power comes 819 00:49:18,360 --> 00:49:22,020 from the fact that the dollar is the standard unit of 820 00:49:22,020 --> 00:49:26,880 international finance and transactions. Clearing through 821 00:49:26,880 --> 00:49:31,020 the New York Fed is critical for major oil, oil and other I'm 822 00:49:31,020 --> 00:49:31,170 just 823 00:49:31,170 --> 00:49:34,440 going to interrupt him then I'll play that bit again. What he's 824 00:49:34,440 --> 00:49:37,980 saying is, is true, although it may sound very, very 825 00:49:38,040 --> 00:49:42,690 unbelievable to most when you transact money, I think even if 826 00:49:42,690 --> 00:49:48,930 you go from, let's say, the Netherlands to Germany. I 827 00:49:48,930 --> 00:49:53,010 believe it still eventually goes through the Swift clearing 828 00:49:53,010 --> 00:49:56,850 system or they may be using the full European system. But the 829 00:49:56,850 --> 00:49:59,970 Swift American banking system has fought very long and hard to 830 00:50:00,000 --> 00:50:04,080 Make sure all money transactions go through our system through 831 00:50:04,080 --> 00:50:06,960 defense system, all of them, certainly when we're talking 832 00:50:06,960 --> 00:50:11,940 about dollar purchases. But you know, and this guy's really just 833 00:50:11,940 --> 00:50:15,240 laying it out as to why this is a problem because of you know, 834 00:50:15,240 --> 00:50:19,290 what interests we have. And I think greatly explained a 835 00:50:19,290 --> 00:50:23,340 problem to me. To me, it sounds like this is exactly why Bitcoin 836 00:50:23,340 --> 00:50:24,450 needs to exist 837 00:50:25,290 --> 00:50:30,360 of international finance and transactions. Clearing through 838 00:50:30,360 --> 00:50:34,470 the New York Fed is critical for major oil, oil and other 839 00:50:34,470 --> 00:50:37,980 transactions. And it is the announced purpose of the 840 00:50:37,980 --> 00:50:42,030 supporters of cryptocurrency to take that power away from us to 841 00:50:42,030 --> 00:50:45,360 put us in a position where the most significant sanctions we 842 00:50:45,360 --> 00:50:50,220 have on Iran, for example, would become irrelevant. So whether it 843 00:50:50,220 --> 00:50:54,300 is to disempower our foreign policy, our tax collection, 844 00:50:54,600 --> 00:50:59,280 enforcement, or our law, traditional law enforcement, the 845 00:50:59,310 --> 00:51:05,160 purposes of cryptocurrency, the advantage it has over sovereign 846 00:51:05,160 --> 00:51:11,310 currency is solely to aid in the disempowerment of the United 847 00:51:11,310 --> 00:51:12,690 States and the rule of law. 848 00:51:12,870 --> 00:51:16,530 Yeah, yeah. There you go. Yeah, I think he's right. Bitcoin is 849 00:51:16,530 --> 00:51:21,480 anti American. Yeah, it's true. I'm all I'm all for it. I have 850 00:51:21,480 --> 00:51:25,260 to say I'm all for it. And I think it's great. We should we 851 00:51:25,260 --> 00:51:27,300 deserve a little competition on our dollar. 852 00:51:27,899 --> 00:51:30,989 Yeah, we're gonna get it from the Chinese. Yeah, we 853 00:51:30,990 --> 00:51:34,680 certainly are. Well, how are the Chinese now do you guys usually 854 00:51:34,680 --> 00:51:37,860 track that over DHL and plug they got their their increased 855 00:51:38,010 --> 00:51:39,240 that tax tariff? 856 00:51:40,500 --> 00:51:43,500 Or as imports or hospital really tracking? Because they lie? 857 00:51:44,400 --> 00:51:47,430 The Chinese? Yeah, well, what are they lying about? 858 00:51:47,790 --> 00:51:50,070 lie about their numbers. You don't know what the hell's going 859 00:51:50,070 --> 00:51:50,310 on with. 860 00:51:51,810 --> 00:51:56,520 Someone sent me this. For all you can say about him. Trump has 861 00:51:56,520 --> 00:52:01,410 been extremely consistent throughout the years prior to 862 00:52:01,410 --> 00:52:04,860 his presidency with the same talking points going back to 863 00:52:04,890 --> 00:52:08,580 Oprah Show in the late 80s, early 90s. And here he is 864 00:52:08,580 --> 00:52:14,520 addressing a crowd in 2011. At did he was he running in 865 00:52:14,550 --> 00:52:16,860 somewhere around that time, he was just making noise about 866 00:52:16,860 --> 00:52:18,480 Obama wasn't he 2011 867 00:52:18,840 --> 00:52:22,650 about running in the year 2000. Right, but 868 00:52:22,650 --> 00:52:25,740 not 2011. He was just making making noise. He 869 00:52:25,740 --> 00:52:28,260 was just, he's always he's always running. He's always 870 00:52:28,260 --> 00:52:29,550 promoting his show and running. 871 00:52:30,150 --> 00:52:33,480 So here he is addressing a crowd specifically about taxing China 872 00:52:33,510 --> 00:52:35,970 and how to tax China and how to present it. 873 00:52:37,590 --> 00:52:41,400 I'll give you a little China story. Also, China, I said the 874 00:52:41,400 --> 00:52:46,020 other day, very, very hard to buy anything outside of China or 875 00:52:46,050 --> 00:52:51,210 certain other countries also, but China's you know, the one I 876 00:52:51,210 --> 00:52:56,820 said so it's the one Why did you do what can you do? So easy. I 877 00:52:56,820 --> 00:53:04,620 drop a 25% tax on China. And you know, somebody that is really 878 00:53:04,620 --> 00:53:09,570 the messenger, the messenger is important. I could have one man 879 00:53:09,600 --> 00:53:14,700 say 25%. And I can say another 880 00:53:22,770 --> 00:53:29,460 I guess he chose for the second way of doing it. They're 881 00:53:29,460 --> 00:53:31,410 responding poorly. I understand. 882 00:53:32,100 --> 00:53:35,430 The Chinese Yeah. I don't like it. I don't like to be 883 00:53:35,430 --> 00:53:36,180 intimidated. But 884 00:53:36,180 --> 00:53:39,420 you know what, I'm what I'm reading everywhere. Is okay, 885 00:53:39,420 --> 00:53:42,570 fine. You know, you order this stuff, and it gets shipped from 886 00:53:42,570 --> 00:53:48,510 Vietnam. That just just kind of using Vietnam as a Pio box now. 887 00:53:51,090 --> 00:53:53,700 Well, I haven't heard this word. Yes. I've 888 00:53:53,700 --> 00:53:54,660 read it everywhere. 889 00:53:54,750 --> 00:53:56,340 Have you gotten anything for Vietnam. 890 00:53:56,610 --> 00:53:59,190 I have also received that this is what tipped me off to it. 891 00:53:59,580 --> 00:54:06,660 I used to buy art from both China and Vietnam. And different 892 00:54:06,660 --> 00:54:11,850 shops that did all kinds of custom. And it was just fabulous 893 00:54:11,940 --> 00:54:14,550 artists in those areas, especially Vietnam, they got a 894 00:54:14,550 --> 00:54:17,820 lot of very artsy if you go to visit the country go Holy 895 00:54:17,820 --> 00:54:22,590 mackerel. And I noticed the one thing I noticed the most was 896 00:54:22,590 --> 00:54:28,560 that FedEx and whoever also was had some deal. So it was pretty 897 00:54:28,560 --> 00:54:33,150 much everything coming out of China was free shipping, or it 898 00:54:33,150 --> 00:54:38,550 was $1. And I was always befuddled by this because the 899 00:54:38,550 --> 00:54:42,720 same products out of Vietnam would cost like $30 in shipping 900 00:54:42,750 --> 00:54:47,280 minimum. And it was just seemed to me that what how does China 901 00:54:47,280 --> 00:54:51,780 doing this deal with FedEx, or whoever it was ups and all of 902 00:54:51,780 --> 00:54:54,210 them they were all given China this huge deal or the Chinese 903 00:54:54,210 --> 00:54:56,130 were eating the price. I didn't know what was going on, but I 904 00:54:56,130 --> 00:54:58,350 thought it was there was some moment of corruption. 905 00:54:58,680 --> 00:55:04,140 Well, we ordered sort of When we moved in, we ordered a chair 906 00:55:04,170 --> 00:55:08,250 from West Elm, the company West Elm, and we've ordered from them 907 00:55:08,250 --> 00:55:12,930 before and as with pretty much all furniture. It comes from 908 00:55:12,930 --> 00:55:16,800 China. But this time because we've ordered from them in the 909 00:55:16,800 --> 00:55:21,900 past this time it showed up huge box. Large Print made in Vietnam 910 00:55:21,900 --> 00:55:25,260 don't think it's China has made it Vietnam doesn't say made in 911 00:55:25,260 --> 00:55:29,310 China on the chair itself. But I'm I'm pretty convinced then I 912 00:55:29,310 --> 00:55:32,820 started looking into it. And I'm seeing they're either doing 913 00:55:32,820 --> 00:55:36,330 subsidiary deals with factories, but basically using Vietnam as a 914 00:55:36,360 --> 00:55:37,260 Pio box. 915 00:55:37,440 --> 00:55:41,760 No, I don't think so. I think it was made in Vietnam. Okay. 916 00:55:42,780 --> 00:55:45,900 Could be I'm just saying we used to get from the same company 917 00:55:45,900 --> 00:55:46,470 will be shipped from 918 00:55:46,470 --> 00:55:50,820 Johnson. Chinese had been notorious for like, moving their 919 00:55:50,820 --> 00:55:54,000 manual, it's funny. To Taiwanese move their manufacturing to 920 00:55:54,000 --> 00:55:57,450 China, the China gets Chinese got swamped and has been known 921 00:55:57,450 --> 00:56:00,390 fact that they've been outsourcing. China, China has 922 00:56:00,390 --> 00:56:02,970 been outsourcing to Vietnam and India. Okay. Well, that makes 923 00:56:02,970 --> 00:56:07,260 sense. And so I would say I would say this, the product will 924 00:56:07,260 --> 00:56:07,890 be better. 925 00:56:09,450 --> 00:56:11,970 And probably will. Yeah, they know what they're doing over 926 00:56:11,970 --> 00:56:12,210 there 927 00:56:12,359 --> 00:56:17,789 are outstanding quality. Yes. It's a very interesting country. 928 00:56:17,789 --> 00:56:22,199 They live 98 their literacy rate in Vietnam is higher than we 929 00:56:22,199 --> 00:56:27,089 have. It's like 98.5% of the country's literate it's very 930 00:56:27,089 --> 00:56:36,659 interesting place. Okay, onward. Yeah. I don't know if that's 931 00:56:36,749 --> 00:56:38,699 anything but it's like a very, I don't know what we're gonna do 932 00:56:38,699 --> 00:56:39,269 about China. 933 00:56:41,340 --> 00:56:44,670 What we're gonna do is what we've been doing is cut them off 934 00:56:44,670 --> 00:56:48,720 at the past the worst them everywhere. We can mess us mess 935 00:56:48,720 --> 00:56:51,600 up countries where they want to have a foothold for their Belt 936 00:56:51,600 --> 00:56:55,680 and Road strategy. And screw Venezuela and the process. 937 00:56:59,130 --> 00:57:01,920 You're just brings me to Venezuela. I'm sorry. I have a 938 00:57:01,920 --> 00:57:02,370 China. 939 00:57:03,240 --> 00:57:04,560 Wally go with Venezuela. 940 00:57:04,590 --> 00:57:09,720 Yes, I do. I have three things from Venezuela. This is from 941 00:57:09,750 --> 00:57:14,280 NPR. And one I have one. What's this play yours first? What 942 00:57:14,279 --> 00:57:18,719 do you got? Well, mine is about into the local protests. You 943 00:57:18,719 --> 00:57:22,649 know, Code Pink. Yeah. And all the rest of the end of 944 00:57:22,649 --> 00:57:25,709 democracy. Not everybody. They're all pro Maduro. For some 945 00:57:25,709 --> 00:57:27,119 reason. I don't know what 946 00:57:27,420 --> 00:57:29,010 and code print Code Pink is. 947 00:57:30,030 --> 00:57:34,440 Even protest that Obama a lot is a protest everything, everybody. 948 00:57:34,440 --> 00:57:38,910 Yeah. But they love Maduro. So they're protesting. I 949 00:57:38,910 --> 00:57:41,220 think you can hire them for anything. So just highest 950 00:57:41,220 --> 00:57:42,000 bidder, isn't it? 951 00:57:44,790 --> 00:57:48,330 guaido people in and move the real Venezuelans out if you want 952 00:57:48,330 --> 00:57:52,290 to call them real Venezuelans as guaido isn't, but let's play 953 00:57:52,290 --> 00:57:56,010 protests in weirdness at the Venezuelan embassy Democracy 954 00:57:56,010 --> 00:57:57,150 Now. In Washington, 955 00:57:57,150 --> 00:58:00,450 DC authorities cut off water and electricity to Venezuela's 956 00:58:00,450 --> 00:58:03,570 embassy as activists with Code Pink and other organizations 957 00:58:03,780 --> 00:58:06,990 continue around the clock occupation in order to prevent a 958 00:58:06,990 --> 00:58:10,260 takeover of the building by Venezuela's US backed 959 00:58:10,260 --> 00:58:13,470 opposition. The activists entered the embassy in late 960 00:58:13,470 --> 00:58:15,900 April with the invitation of Venezuela's government, 961 00:58:16,110 --> 00:58:19,350 opposition groups led by Juan guaido and backed by the Trump 962 00:58:19,350 --> 00:58:22,500 administration have pledged to take over the building. So far 963 00:58:22,500 --> 00:58:25,530 police and Secret Service agents have arrested nine activists, 964 00:58:25,680 --> 00:58:30,120 including Jerry condone a 72 year old Vietnam War veteran and 965 00:58:30,120 --> 00:58:33,150 the president of Veterans for Peace, who was violently tackled 966 00:58:33,150 --> 00:58:36,330 and pressed to the pavement Wednesday by five officers after 967 00:58:36,330 --> 00:58:39,450 he tried to bring food to protesters occupying the 968 00:58:39,480 --> 00:58:42,810 embassy, now known was left bleeding from the head and 969 00:58:42,810 --> 00:58:45,420 needed medical treatment. He's been charged with throwing a 970 00:58:45,420 --> 00:58:49,350 missile resisting arrest and assaulting police officers he 971 00:58:49,350 --> 00:58:52,230 attempted to get food inside the building. 972 00:58:53,460 --> 00:58:55,260 did not report mainstream adoption. 973 00:58:55,260 --> 00:58:58,830 Well, of course not I just this just in from one of our lawyers 974 00:58:58,830 --> 00:59:02,430 within the value for value network. I have been advised and 975 00:59:02,430 --> 00:59:05,430 I can confirm that this isn't the he's the real deal. I've 976 00:59:05,430 --> 00:59:09,330 been advised by clients who buy from China as follows. The 977 00:59:09,330 --> 00:59:13,680 manufacturers are moving to Vietnam from China, but the PIO 978 00:59:13,680 --> 00:59:16,380 box scam is being perpetrated in Malaysia. 979 00:59:17,820 --> 00:59:19,920 So that's how they're rolling. Okay, 980 00:59:19,950 --> 00:59:22,560 Malaysia. So look for some problems in Malaysia. What can 981 00:59:22,560 --> 00:59:26,070 we what can we stir up in Malaysia? Because that's what it 982 00:59:26,070 --> 00:59:29,400 seems to be. We just want to thwart the Chinese. This is 983 00:59:29,400 --> 00:59:35,910 Undersecretary of State Tom Shannon, on NPR. And this first 984 00:59:35,910 --> 00:59:42,210 clip is about the failed coup. I'm sorry, flipping in Venezuela 985 00:59:42,240 --> 00:59:44,790 out of the tools available to the United States who will 986 00:59:44,850 --> 00:59:46,770 compare to the vulnerabilities. 987 00:59:47,430 --> 00:59:50,880 Up to this point, the tools have not been sufficient, really 988 00:59:50,880 --> 00:59:53,700 beginning on January 23, when Juan guaido declared the 989 00:59:53,700 --> 00:59:57,420 presidency vacant, and declared himself the president under the 990 00:59:57,420 --> 01:00:00,210 Constitution. The hope at the time was that would be 991 01:00:00,210 --> 01:00:04,590 sufficient to flip the military, it did not work. Then the 992 01:00:04,590 --> 01:00:06,600 opposition working with the United States and other 993 01:00:06,600 --> 01:00:10,200 countries decided that focusing on humanitarian assistance and 994 01:00:10,200 --> 01:00:13,650 creating a confrontation at the border between Colombia and 995 01:00:13,650 --> 01:00:17,640 Venezuela, over the delivery of humanitarian assistance, would 996 01:00:17,640 --> 01:00:20,670 create a rebellion within the armed forces that did not work. 997 01:00:21,120 --> 01:00:25,410 Then the administration decided that sanctioning the state run 998 01:00:25,530 --> 01:00:28,590 Oil Company Podesta and effectively sending a clear 999 01:00:28,590 --> 01:00:32,760 signal to the armed forces, that revenues would be cut off and 1000 01:00:32,760 --> 01:00:36,450 their access to the Venezuelan gravy train would end would 1001 01:00:36,480 --> 01:00:39,900 convince the military to flip. That did not work. 1002 01:00:39,960 --> 01:00:42,780 There's also been an effort to focus on individual members or 1003 01:00:42,780 --> 01:00:45,120 former members of the military, some of them had been 1004 01:00:45,120 --> 01:00:48,330 sanctioned. And just the other day Vice President Pence said 1005 01:00:48,330 --> 01:00:51,420 the US would aim to lift sanctions on an individual 1006 01:00:51,540 --> 01:00:54,900 former intelligence chief, I believe, who switched sides. Is 1007 01:00:54,900 --> 01:00:55,770 that working at all? 1008 01:00:56,190 --> 01:00:58,950 Well, we'll have to wait and see. The purpose, obviously, is 1009 01:00:58,950 --> 01:01:02,580 to send the signal that those members of the armed forces that 1010 01:01:02,580 --> 01:01:05,160 choose to work with the opposition, if they are under 1011 01:01:05,160 --> 01:01:08,790 sanctions will have those sanctions lifted, and those who 1012 01:01:08,790 --> 01:01:13,110 might be facing sanctions would not face them. If they chose to 1013 01:01:13,110 --> 01:01:15,720 work with the opposition. We're gonna have to wait and see how 1014 01:01:15,720 --> 01:01:16,470 that's received. 1015 01:01:16,710 --> 01:01:20,460 What's just amazes me is to listen to this guy cavalierly 1016 01:01:20,460 --> 01:01:24,900 speak with an NPR host, who easily could have been lamenting 1017 01:01:25,620 --> 01:01:29,820 the Russians meddling in our elections. But listen to this. 1018 01:01:31,170 --> 01:01:34,200 What tools do you have? Well, this tool didn't work. And that 1019 01:01:34,200 --> 01:01:36,630 tool didn't work. What are you doing? Well, I'm gonna jack 1020 01:01:36,630 --> 01:01:39,630 Venezuela, obviously. Oh, how about Russia and China, 1021 01:01:39,660 --> 01:01:43,410 the Russians have provided significant sales of weapons to 1022 01:01:43,410 --> 01:01:47,220 the Venezuelan Government, along with purchasing large quantities 1023 01:01:47,220 --> 01:01:50,880 of oil and gas and inserting themselves into Venezuela's oil 1024 01:01:50,880 --> 01:01:53,910 and gas industry. And then the Chinese, of course, also have 1025 01:01:53,910 --> 01:01:56,370 deep interests in the oil and gas sector. 1026 01:01:56,400 --> 01:02:00,150 Is there any way to pry those foreign actors away from the 1027 01:02:00,150 --> 01:02:02,040 Venezuelan Government Maduro government, 1028 01:02:03,180 --> 01:02:08,010 that's NPR, your National Public Radio is participating in this 1029 01:02:08,010 --> 01:02:11,430 totally radical is, yeah, we're just strategizing how we can 1030 01:02:11,430 --> 01:02:12,720 fuck the Chinese. 1031 01:02:13,710 --> 01:02:16,860 We're gonna have to wait and see. I personally believe that 1032 01:02:16,860 --> 01:02:19,230 calling these governments out, especially the Chinese and the 1033 01:02:19,230 --> 01:02:23,190 Russians was not intelligent. The Chinese in particular, have 1034 01:02:23,190 --> 01:02:27,030 been looking to play a very low key role in this political 1035 01:02:27,030 --> 01:02:29,580 dispute and are more interested in their long term energy 1036 01:02:29,580 --> 01:02:32,760 interests. And therefore, it's important for the United States, 1037 01:02:33,030 --> 01:02:35,160 to make very clear to the Chinese that the long term 1038 01:02:35,160 --> 01:02:38,160 future of their relationships in South America are going to 1039 01:02:38,160 --> 01:02:42,270 depend on China's willingness to help Venezuela find political 1040 01:02:42,270 --> 01:02:44,640 accommodation that gets it through this period of crisis, 1041 01:02:44,640 --> 01:02:44,760 do 1042 01:02:44,760 --> 01:02:47,250 you mean to say would have been more intelligent to quietly 1043 01:02:47,250 --> 01:02:50,010 approach the Chinese and reassure them that their energy 1044 01:02:50,010 --> 01:02:53,190 interests will be maintained no matter who is running Venezuela? 1045 01:02:53,490 --> 01:02:58,290 Yes, but also to make clear that countries who have China as a 1046 01:02:58,290 --> 01:03:01,440 number one trading partner, like Brazil, like Argentina, like 1047 01:03:01,440 --> 01:03:05,220 Chile, like Peru, wants to maintain that relationship. But 1048 01:03:05,220 --> 01:03:08,580 in order to do so that the Chinese need to understand that 1049 01:03:08,580 --> 01:03:11,280 by financing the Maduro government, they are actually 1050 01:03:11,280 --> 01:03:14,610 creating problems inside of South America, especially the 1051 01:03:14,640 --> 01:03:17,520 outflow of refugees from Venezuela, that are seriously 1052 01:03:17,520 --> 01:03:20,940 affecting the stability of countries like Colombia, Peru, 1053 01:03:20,940 --> 01:03:22,680 Ecuador, Chile and Brazil. 1054 01:03:23,009 --> 01:03:26,669 Yeah, there you go. That's that's what we're doing. That's 1055 01:03:26,669 --> 01:03:29,069 that's your you don't need to know anything else. We are all 1056 01:03:29,069 --> 01:03:29,669 over it. 1057 01:03:30,359 --> 01:03:31,229 Who is that guy? 1058 01:03:31,710 --> 01:03:37,170 That is the Undersecretary of State Tom Shannon. Shannon speak 1059 01:03:37,170 --> 01:03:42,210 it too much me thinketh. This is way out the problem this morning 1060 01:03:42,210 --> 01:03:43,380 to get some other tools. 1061 01:03:45,090 --> 01:03:47,640 That was a Yeah, I agree with you. What is this? What is the 1062 01:03:47,640 --> 01:03:52,680 point of this? Well, it's it's not like deep disinformation, or 1063 01:03:52,950 --> 01:03:56,010 some sort of just giving a briefing meeting or anything. 1064 01:03:56,010 --> 01:03:59,610 You go on NPR just explain the strategies. 1065 01:03:59,819 --> 01:04:04,139 This makes no suity. That must be the way the State Department 1066 01:04:04,139 --> 01:04:07,859 of State is being run these days. Now, the technical experts 1067 01:04:07,859 --> 01:04:11,159 that we've discussed who have targeted us when we talk about 1068 01:04:11,159 --> 01:04:14,639 Venezuela, we're not doing it right. We're not talking about 1069 01:04:14,639 --> 01:04:21,479 him. Right. I'm starting to see some patterns here. As there are 1070 01:04:21,479 --> 01:04:27,719 some young Venezuelan kids, and I say kids in the 20 to 2425 1071 01:04:27,719 --> 01:04:33,269 year old range, who put together a video specifically meant for 1072 01:04:33,269 --> 01:04:39,719 Alexandria, Ocasio Cortes, who as we know is all in on Maduro 1073 01:04:39,749 --> 01:04:44,579 regime and the and the socialist country of Venezuela. At least 1074 01:04:44,579 --> 01:04:49,829 that's the way it's portrayed in the in the M five M. And then 1075 01:04:49,859 --> 01:04:52,289 this video appears I'm gonna play a little bit of it first, 1076 01:04:52,289 --> 01:04:53,189 you get the idea. 1077 01:04:53,520 --> 01:04:56,970 Let me tell you something. Alexandria. Alexandria, Ocasio 1078 01:04:56,970 --> 01:05:01,350 Cortez, I want to tell you something else. Illegal novels 1079 01:05:01,350 --> 01:05:06,360 Jonah Hill socialismo No. funciona My name is Jose. I'm 21 1080 01:05:06,360 --> 01:05:10,260 years old. I am Simone Machado.

Alexandria 1082 01:05:15,240 --> 01:05:18,330 Ocasio Cortez, Ocasio Cortez, you're a liar. You're a liar. 1083 01:05:18,330 --> 01:05:20,340 You don't know where you're talking about. You're clueless. 1084 01:05:20,460 --> 01:05:23,430 You have never gone through socialism. So you reach it like 1085 01:05:23,430 --> 01:05:28,620 you do. America will never be a socialist country, American will 1086 01:05:28,620 --> 01:05:32,520 never be a socialist country. A lot of people think socialism. 1087 01:05:32,700 --> 01:05:37,170 It's all about equality, and free stuff. What socialism is 1088 01:05:37,170 --> 01:05:40,350 really about its starvation, people dying from lack of 1089 01:05:40,350 --> 01:05:43,260 medicine. Alexandria, Ocasio Cortez, I want these 1090 01:05:43,290 --> 01:05:46,170 now. Just notice that the lack of medicine all the talking 1091 01:05:46,170 --> 01:05:46,650 points 1092 01:05:46,650 --> 01:05:51,090 are here who produces Birch Society? No, 1093 01:05:51,330 --> 01:05:54,510 this is why I was interested in sharing this. It goes on for 1094 01:05:54,510 --> 01:05:59,430 about three minutes. 30 more seconds to hear some of the 1095 01:05:59,430 --> 01:06:02,490 other points you've heard in this type of campaigns really 1096 01:06:02,490 --> 01:06:05,940 about its starvation, people dying from lack of medicine. 1097 01:06:06,270 --> 01:06:09,900 Alexandria Ocasio Cortez, I want to tell you something. If you 1098 01:06:09,900 --> 01:06:13,110 really believe in socialism, why are you here in the US? Why 1099 01:06:13,110 --> 01:06:16,590 don't you move to Venezuela, Cuba, Russia, Afghanistan, 1100 01:06:16,590 --> 01:06:21,360 China? Why don't you just go there? You know, you talk about 1101 01:06:21,360 --> 01:06:25,110 socialism, as it is something so perfect for you. No, it's not? 1102 01:06:25,350 --> 01:06:27,720 Well, no, actually, you really truly believe that, that he 1103 01:06:27,720 --> 01:06:31,200 works like that. But he doesn't just go and look into actual 1104 01:06:31,200 --> 01:06:35,220 facts and not just in books. Isn't it? Good to have your life 1105 01:06:35,220 --> 01:06:38,460 going everyday to Starbucks, tweeting how much hate 1106 01:06:38,460 --> 01:06:39,990 capitalism from your MacBook? 1107 01:06:40,200 --> 01:06:43,500 That's great, right? Okay, so when I hear these things, you 1108 01:06:43,500 --> 01:06:47,370 know, like, isn't it great drinking your Starbucks and 1109 01:06:47,400 --> 01:06:50,790 tweeting how much you hate capitalism on your MacBook? I'm 1110 01:06:50,790 --> 01:06:53,400 like, okay, these are talking points. I've heard them before. 1111 01:06:53,850 --> 01:06:57,930 And they sound a lot with a medicine thing and Maduro. It 1112 01:06:57,930 --> 01:07:01,440 sounds a lot like the emails we received. This is produced and 1113 01:07:01,440 --> 01:07:07,530 distributed. By turning point USA, home of Candace Owens and 1114 01:07:07,530 --> 01:07:11,760 Charlie Kirk. These are the propagandists, and now I'm 1115 01:07:11,760 --> 01:07:15,600 starting to think maybe it was their, their outfit that sent us 1116 01:07:15,600 --> 01:07:18,900 emails who would know about podcasts? Who would stay on top 1117 01:07:18,900 --> 01:07:21,630 of that? I was giving the US State Department too much 1118 01:07:21,630 --> 01:07:26,670 credit, I think. So these may be the actors. And how does this 1119 01:07:26,670 --> 01:07:30,570 fit in with what I thought Turning Point USA was? I don't 1120 01:07:30,570 --> 01:07:33,690 know. I never heard of them. Well, you know, Candace Owens. 1121 01:07:33,930 --> 01:07:40,050 Oh, yeah. Yeah. No, she's the Brexit that I like Candace 1122 01:07:40,050 --> 01:07:42,600 Owens. I like them. I like what she does I like what she does 1123 01:07:42,600 --> 01:07:47,820 for Prager University but what is this what is these guys are 1124 01:07:48,180 --> 01:07:54,330 turning point USA this is this is propaganda stick crap and I 1125 01:07:54,330 --> 01:07:58,140 can't take them very seriously after hearing this well what do 1126 01:07:58,140 --> 01:07:59,100 we know about this drug 1127 01:07:59,129 --> 01:08:04,769 bitch it's just like the those horrible Democrat the celebrity 1128 01:08:04,769 --> 01:08:08,489 ones were the celebrities yes was bad yeah.

And in the morning to let me see. I 1151 01:09:22,230 --> 01:09:25,650 believe it was yes. Darren O'Neill who brought us the 1152 01:09:25,650 --> 01:09:31,290 artwork for episode 1136 1136 episodes. That episode was 1153 01:09:31,290 --> 01:09:37,530 titled spy slot, which is a CIA term we learned on the show. And 1154 01:09:37,560 --> 01:09:43,920 Darren O'Neill. Oh, yes. He brought us the find example of 1155 01:09:43,920 --> 01:09:48,390 what you don't like at a Whole Foods checkout line. Someone 1156 01:09:48,390 --> 01:09:57,090 with face tattoos. blown out ear ear lobes. And I think in this 1157 01:09:57,090 --> 01:10:02,160 case dispatch both Darren and I are I'm Darren and we kind of 1158 01:10:02,160 --> 01:10:05,520 went for the cheapest laugh I guess is that what we would 1159 01:10:05,520 --> 01:10:06,960 classify this as? 1160 01:10:07,590 --> 01:10:11,040 Well now that you mentioned it is kind of going for the now 1161 01:10:11,040 --> 01:10:13,050 that you started this this analysis. 1162 01:10:14,969 --> 01:10:16,679 Nose ring mustache. 1163 01:10:16,919 --> 01:10:21,809 You saw it in this this piece of art this art. Okay, there was a 1164 01:10:21,809 --> 01:10:23,639 bunch of stuff that was actually 1165 01:10:25,140 --> 01:10:29,580 it was all borderline I mean, the kind of the funniest sickest 1166 01:10:29,580 --> 01:10:31,260 one was the black royal 1167 01:10:33,360 --> 01:10:36,840 extreme cave bear. extremely racist, 1168 01:10:37,080 --> 01:10:42,060 racist. Yes, racist piece. I liked the mental health one the 1169 01:10:42,060 --> 01:10:45,060 most, but it was like more of an evergreen didn't really have 1170 01:10:45,060 --> 01:10:53,370 much to do with anything. The cat with the with the phone is 1171 01:10:53,460 --> 01:10:57,600 funny but not pertinent to the show. The thing was, we actually 1172 01:10:57,600 --> 01:11:01,710 looked over these domains, and it was pertinent to the show was 1173 01:11:01,710 --> 01:11:06,630 the mustachioed character. Yeah, so that's what we that's really 1174 01:11:06,630 --> 01:11:07,740 the reason we picked picked it. 1175 01:11:07,950 --> 01:11:14,460 And someone else made a an email common to us that the artwork is 1176 01:11:14,460 --> 01:11:18,540 really just part of a package of three elements of promotion. And 1177 01:11:18,540 --> 01:11:21,090 I wanted to bring that up, because it does work in concert. 1178 01:11:21,450 --> 01:11:25,950 We have the album art, we have the show title, and we have the 1179 01:11:25,980 --> 01:11:30,930 opening blurb at the beginning of the show. And each one of 1180 01:11:30,930 --> 01:11:35,130 those three elements is important in promoting each new 1181 01:11:35,160 --> 01:11:38,430 a new episode. Personally, I think the tight title is yes, go 1182 01:11:38,430 --> 01:11:38,820 ahead. 1183 01:11:39,180 --> 01:11:44,820 And we have made a rule, just not true arbitrators, your rule 1184 01:11:44,820 --> 01:11:47,460 is your rule. You can't crossover. 1185 01:11:48,000 --> 01:11:51,990 You can't have the artwork be the same or have the same topic 1186 01:11:52,020 --> 01:11:57,720 as the title and the opening. giblet can't be related to the 1187 01:11:57,720 --> 01:12:01,080 other two, either. I don't know why we came up with why I was 1188 01:12:01,080 --> 01:12:03,630 you at the same place. But I like it makes us 1189 01:12:05,130 --> 01:12:09,090 well became established. Because at some point, I think we did 1190 01:12:09,090 --> 01:12:11,910 have a couple of contrary Well, it's called dissolves with the 1191 01:12:11,910 --> 01:12:16,920 artworks is doing. Once it became established, we just kind 1192 01:12:16,920 --> 01:12:19,680 of said okay, well, we just what we're gonna do, we could do it. 1193 01:12:19,680 --> 01:12:21,150 It's not like it's impossible. 1194 01:12:22,080 --> 01:12:24,870 People really want to hear that conversation. I should record it 1195 01:12:24,870 --> 01:12:26,970 when we're discussing artwork and titles. 1196 01:12:28,920 --> 01:12:30,750 Let's record it, you just recorded it. 1197 01:12:31,440 --> 01:12:34,560 No, I mean, the actual process. Oh, 1198 01:12:34,590 --> 01:12:37,620 maybe you wanted to things, we noticed that the art works as 1199 01:12:37,620 --> 01:12:40,680 we're discussing it as people try to guess. 1200 01:12:41,220 --> 01:12:44,490 Oh, yeah, the topic that we will be interested in as arts. Yes. 1201 01:12:44,640 --> 01:12:48,690 Yeah. And so if the art itself, we never mentioned it. And we 1202 01:12:48,690 --> 01:12:51,270 get to the artwork say Oh, this guy just did. We didn't talk 1203 01:12:51,270 --> 01:12:54,090 about it. That was a disappointment is sometimes it's 1204 01:12:54,090 --> 01:12:57,930 I guess, superior piece of art. We say wow, what a great piece 1205 01:12:57,930 --> 01:13:01,530 of art is too bad. We didn't talk about this. 1206 01:13:02,130 --> 01:13:06,120 That yes, that does indeed have like, quite a bit. We missed the 1207 01:13:06,120 --> 01:13:06,660 topic. 1208 01:13:06,690 --> 01:13:09,840 Yeah. A bit predicting what we're going to talk about and 1209 01:13:09,840 --> 01:13:13,170 Pete Buttigieg being called Alfred E. Newman by President 1210 01:13:13,170 --> 01:13:16,620 Trump is not on my list. It's not something we were ever going 1211 01:13:16,620 --> 01:13:19,770 to talk about. Now. At least not on this show. No, I 1212 01:13:19,770 --> 01:13:21,180 don't think so. I will say 1213 01:13:21,180 --> 01:13:24,030 that the art that was done here. Didn't make them look like 1214 01:13:24,030 --> 01:13:25,860 Alfred E. Newman is out sis. 1215 01:13:26,160 --> 01:13:30,660 Done. Yes. Like they will probably go for a mom thing. I 1216 01:13:30,660 --> 01:13:34,470 think that's pretty good. Mom is always good. Mom is always safe, 1217 01:13:34,470 --> 01:13:36,300 safe bet. safe bet right? 1218 01:13:36,570 --> 01:13:38,850 So let's get to our donations.

All you have to do is keep us going go to vo 1306 01:19:24,780 --> 01:19:30,480 rec.org/and A and you too can continue the deconstruction like 1307 01:19:30,480 --> 01:19:33,240 Who else knows what's going on in Venezuela Hard Formula 1308 01:19:33,240 --> 01:19:37,200 is this. We go out for yet people in the mouth 1309 01:19:51,720 --> 01:19:55,980 European Parliament elections are coming up. And it's very odd 1310 01:19:55,980 --> 01:20:02,220 because due to the lack of blegh of Brexit The European parties 1311 01:20:02,250 --> 01:20:08,010 are in and they can vote on European representation. since 1312 01:20:08,010 --> 01:20:12,750 Brexit is Brexit breakfast, says breakfast. Breakfast is not yet 1313 01:20:12,750 --> 01:20:17,070 done. The European Union and just explaining this is it's 1314 01:20:17,070 --> 01:20:19,590 kind of complicated and but I think it's interesting to do it 1315 01:20:19,590 --> 01:20:22,350 without the visuals, because the European Union had a little 1316 01:20:22,350 --> 01:20:27,180 cartoon to explain exactly how it works. That you know how 1317 01:20:27,180 --> 01:20:29,190 these European Parliament elections work. 1318 01:20:30,330 --> 01:20:34,830 I would be remiss if I said I absolutely knew, but I don't. 1319 01:20:34,860 --> 01:20:35,280 Well, I 1320 01:20:35,280 --> 01:20:39,630 find it to be rather confusing, I'm sure. Somehow Faraj gets in 1321 01:20:39,630 --> 01:20:42,390 his own way. The end of the day, Faraj is in 1322 01:20:43,350 --> 01:20:46,830 this year's European elections, it's a big deal. 1323 01:20:46,980 --> 01:20:51,450 I love this kind of Eurocentric British accent. It's very 1324 01:20:51,450 --> 01:20:54,480 different from, from what you hear in the UK very different 1325 01:20:54,480 --> 01:20:57,270 than a real British accent. Yeah, it is. It's just it's very 1326 01:20:57,300 --> 01:21:01,230 Eurocentric. optische They got a whole roomful of these people in 1327 01:21:01,230 --> 01:21:03,240 Brussels who do nothing with these voiceovers. 1328 01:21:03,270 --> 01:21:07,020 But it's not simple not to help you get your head around them. 1329 01:21:07,050 --> 01:21:12,060 We put together this handy explainer. Confusingly different 1330 01:21:12,060 --> 01:21:16,680 parts of the EU use different voting systems. But all are some 1331 01:21:16,680 --> 01:21:19,650 form of proportional representation. Some vote for 1332 01:21:19,650 --> 01:21:23,250 parties who has selected a fixed list of candidates to appear on 1333 01:21:23,250 --> 01:21:26,220 the ballot paper. Other countries have more open lists 1334 01:21:26,220 --> 01:21:29,970 where voters choose a party or indicate who is their favorite 1335 01:21:29,970 --> 01:21:34,500 candidate. Hear electors choose as many candidates as they like 1336 01:21:34,560 --> 01:21:38,730 and number them by preference. turnout at EU elections has 1337 01:21:38,730 --> 01:21:43,560 dropped from 62% to 42% over the last four decades. And because 1338 01:21:43,560 --> 01:21:46,380 you made it so easy, that's why that's despite a handful of 1339 01:21:46,380 --> 01:21:49,590 countries including Belgium, Greece and Bulgaria, where 1340 01:21:49,590 --> 01:21:54,900 voting is compulsory. MEPs are elected to represent 1341 01:21:54,900 --> 01:21:58,560 geographical areas regions in some countries like Italy, while 1342 01:21:58,560 --> 01:22:01,590 in others such as Germany, they have the whole country as their 1343 01:22:01,590 --> 01:22:05,670 constituency, the number each country gets is proportional to 1344 01:22:05,670 --> 01:22:06,420 his population. 1345 01:22:06,450 --> 01:22:09,180 Now this is kind of interesting. When you hear the difference in 1346 01:22:09,180 --> 01:22:12,480 its base, it's pretty much the way our House of Representatives 1347 01:22:12,480 --> 01:22:16,020 works. Except they don't have the concept of a Senate with 1348 01:22:16,020 --> 01:22:19,170 some equal power. So here it's just whoever's the biggest 1349 01:22:19,170 --> 01:22:19,950 rules. 1350 01:22:20,070 --> 01:22:24,510 Germany the most populous will get 96 MEPs for it at 2.8 1351 01:22:24,510 --> 01:22:30,000 million people, while tiny Malta with 475,000 people has just 1352 01:22:30,030 --> 01:22:35,400 six. They will serve a five year term 2019 to 2024 and spend 1353 01:22:35,400 --> 01:22:38,160 their time between European Parliament's in Strasburg and 1354 01:22:38,160 --> 01:22:42,300 Brussels. They pass EU laws and approve its budget along with 1355 01:22:42,300 --> 01:22:46,920 the European Council. M EPS, while representing countries or 1356 01:22:46,920 --> 01:22:50,100 regions sit in transnational groups in the parliament 1357 01:22:50,130 --> 01:22:53,610 according to political ideology. For example, there are groupings 1358 01:22:53,610 --> 01:22:57,270 to represent the center right socialists, greens, and others 1359 01:22:57,270 --> 01:23:01,830 for Euroskeptics. MEP is also helped choose the President of 1360 01:23:01,830 --> 01:23:05,340 the European Commission. The largest political grouping after 1361 01:23:05,340 --> 01:23:09,120 mais election has the strongest mandate to have its choice head 1362 01:23:09,120 --> 01:23:12,780 up for Commission, the European Council comprising chiefs of EU 1363 01:23:12,780 --> 01:23:16,410 countries first votes on a nominee chosen after taking into 1364 01:23:16,410 --> 01:23:20,220 account the election result if they approve the candidate. He 1365 01:23:20,220 --> 01:23:23,730 goes to the European parliament where he or she must get the 1366 01:23:23,730 --> 01:23:26,250 support of a majority of MEPs. 1367 01:23:28,890 --> 01:23:35,580 This is so convoluted. I don't think anyone I don't think 1368 01:23:35,580 --> 01:23:39,930 anyone it's just like why your eyes glaze over. Man. 1369 01:23:39,960 --> 01:23:42,660 I did. I don't know. I still don't understand, especially 1370 01:23:42,660 --> 01:23:43,440 with that background 1371 01:23:43,440 --> 01:23:46,260 music hands is that meant to make me feel calm or trying to 1372 01:23:46,260 --> 01:23:50,100 comprehend. So everyone has a different system. Everyone does 1373 01:23:50,100 --> 01:23:52,770 it differently then you throw a whole bunch of people out there 1374 01:23:52,770 --> 01:23:55,770 and then they all those people then go and determine who they 1375 01:23:55,800 --> 01:23:58,770 are, which could be a totally Rando they could bring in to be 1376 01:23:58,770 --> 01:24:03,000 the president of the European Parliament. And then you add in 1377 01:24:03,000 --> 01:24:08,610 the you get the well, good luck. Every every country and every 1378 01:24:08,610 --> 01:24:10,920 union gets the government government she deserves and 1379 01:24:10,950 --> 01:24:11,880 you're getting all 1380 01:24:14,130 --> 01:24:17,460 but what's really the government No. scam. 1381 01:24:17,580 --> 01:24:20,190 So as I'm looking around, since there's no news in America, at 1382 01:24:20,190 --> 01:24:23,640 least I didn't feel anything really that newsworthy. I wound 1383 01:24:23,640 --> 01:24:28,470 up watching your own news. And your own news had a number of 1384 01:24:28,500 --> 01:24:32,250 stories about samosa, the island of Samos, which is a Greek 1385 01:24:32,250 --> 01:24:37,200 island. But it's an it's an odd one because it is almost it's so 1386 01:24:37,200 --> 01:24:41,280 far off the coast of Greece is actually very close to Turkey. 1387 01:24:41,940 --> 01:24:47,040 And, you know, you could hop a hop a little boat to get from 1388 01:24:47,700 --> 01:24:51,180 the coast of Turkey to this Greek island. And what has 1389 01:24:51,180 --> 01:24:56,640 happened is some moss has been used as a parking place for 1390 01:24:56,640 --> 01:25:00,720 migrants who want to come into Europe at and not just being 1391 01:25:00,720 --> 01:25:04,920 held there because the European Union's like, yeah, we got 1392 01:25:04,920 --> 01:25:09,120 enough people and we remember they kind of close some borders 1393 01:25:09,120 --> 01:25:11,910 here and there and whatever don't look at Greece, Greece is 1394 01:25:11,910 --> 01:25:14,970 really doesn't count because, you know, they, they got no, no 1395 01:25:14,970 --> 01:25:18,270 money, we don't care about them. So Greece is pretty much the 1396 01:25:18,300 --> 01:25:24,690 dumping site of the EU. And they had a well, I'm gonna play the 1397 01:25:25,260 --> 01:25:32,730 first piece here about Yeah, about what's happening in the 1398 01:25:32,730 --> 01:25:36,060 numbers of what's taking place. And then there was a 20 minute 1399 01:25:36,060 --> 01:25:38,730 piece which I pulled one little specific piece out of here's 1400 01:25:38,820 --> 01:25:42,630 here's the basic story of Sam was talking to a person who set 1401 01:25:42,630 --> 01:25:47,580 up a community center for these 1000s of refugees living in a 1402 01:25:47,580 --> 01:25:53,640 tent city with at no sanitation, no garbage disposal, no 1403 01:25:53,640 --> 01:25:58,560 sanitation and no toilets. 00 toilets 1404 01:25:58,890 --> 01:26:04,320 situation hasn't improved in any way. Right now. There's over 1405 01:26:04,320 --> 01:26:09,900 3300 people on Samos, the capacity of the country 650 The 1406 01:26:09,900 --> 01:26:14,640 delays on the asylum procedures are extremely long. We've seen 1407 01:26:14,640 --> 01:26:18,840 recently people getting interview dates for 2022 Even 1408 01:26:18,840 --> 01:26:21,930 someone for 2023 for their appear which is 1409 01:26:23,220 --> 01:26:27,630 they're sitting in these are un UNICEF, actually, it says on the 1410 01:26:27,630 --> 01:26:33,690 side, UNICEF tents, no toilets, no, the people just pooping on 1411 01:26:33,690 --> 01:26:40,170 the perimeter. And, you know, the next to farmlands and all 1412 01:26:40,170 --> 01:26:42,210 kinds of stuff like this. And these people are saying, I've 1413 01:26:42,210 --> 01:26:44,970 been here for eight months. I can't live here for another year 1414 01:26:44,970 --> 01:26:49,200 and a half before I get my site my asylum hearing. So I'm going 1415 01:26:49,200 --> 01:26:52,200 to go crazy. And of course there's all kinds of crime now 1416 01:26:52,200 --> 01:26:53,040 taking place. 1417 01:26:54,000 --> 01:26:58,890 This is having people waiting for such a long period of time 1418 01:26:58,890 --> 01:27:02,280 without any clear information about knowing what's going to 1419 01:27:02,280 --> 01:27:08,910 happen with them without having a proper process where they can 1420 01:27:09,330 --> 01:27:13,470 integration process in place for having a possibility to work and 1421 01:27:13,470 --> 01:27:17,160 provide for themselves. It really affects people especially 1422 01:27:17,160 --> 01:27:22,890 their mental health. And this causes a lot of distress. It 1423 01:27:22,890 --> 01:27:25,380 doesn't look that things are gonna change anytime soon 1424 01:27:25,380 --> 01:27:30,630 because the system in place is broken right now. Well, if we 1425 01:27:30,630 --> 01:27:33,600 look at the EU Turkey deal, it has never properly worked. 1426 01:27:34,050 --> 01:27:40,620 This is the EU Turkey deal where if someone came into the EU 1427 01:27:41,070 --> 01:27:45,330 could not rightfully claim asylum. The EU paid several 1428 01:27:45,330 --> 01:27:49,530 billion euros to Turkey to take them back. And we remember I 1429 01:27:49,530 --> 01:27:52,680 remember we covered this oh yeah just send them back no problem 1430 01:27:52,740 --> 01:27:54,720 Well, that's not working out because they're not being sent 1431 01:27:54,720 --> 01:27:57,750 back to not being accepted even though you could almost toss 1432 01:27:57,750 --> 01:28:00,900 them overs over off the island they could swim back to Turkey. 1433 01:28:01,620 --> 01:28:04,560 Well, if we look at the EU Turkey deal it has never 1434 01:28:04,560 --> 01:28:08,880 properly worked. People are supposed to their cases are 1435 01:28:08,880 --> 01:28:12,720 supposed to be treated very quickly. And like the hotspots 1436 01:28:12,720 --> 01:28:19,170 are supposed to be like a triage point where people are that are 1437 01:28:19,650 --> 01:28:22,770 supposed to get asylum they are allowed to stay in those that 1438 01:28:22,800 --> 01:28:27,450 are rejected their asylum they will be quickly returned to 1439 01:28:28,920 --> 01:28:32,370 Turkey or to their home country right now what what was 1440 01:28:32,370 --> 01:28:38,340 happening is people are are just waiting for months or years for 1441 01:28:38,340 --> 01:28:43,290 their asylum procedure to be completed. And without knowing 1442 01:28:43,290 --> 01:28:46,170 what kind of even if they get the rejection they are still 1443 01:28:46,320 --> 01:28:48,420 staying here for a very very long 1444 01:28:48,420 --> 01:28:52,740 time. And you know, there was a piece about some people who have 1445 01:28:52,770 --> 01:28:56,400 their little house there and they're literally on the other 1446 01:28:56,400 --> 01:28:59,280 side of the fence and and they're feeding some of these 1447 01:28:59,280 --> 01:29:02,100 people as they can you see the slop that they're getting is 1448 01:29:02,100 --> 01:29:06,660 passes for food is just I mean this any humane animalistic 1449 01:29:06,660 --> 01:29:09,900 circumstances makes you really think that are putting kids in 1450 01:29:09,900 --> 01:29:14,430 cages is a good deal when you see this is the EU helping out 1451 01:29:14,460 --> 01:29:17,850 right now the policy of the European Union is to send the 1452 01:29:17,880 --> 01:29:21,360 big chunk of money to the Greek government but the money does 1453 01:29:21,360 --> 01:29:23,940 not reach the people on the ground is not acceptable that 1454 01:29:23,940 --> 01:29:26,640 someone has to live on in a tent for eight months a year or year 1455 01:29:26,640 --> 01:29:32,040 and a half with like no sanitation, no protection, no 1456 01:29:33,810 --> 01:29:37,830 proper food looking at the most vulnerable like babies or 1457 01:29:37,860 --> 01:29:42,300 children or pregnant woman there isn't like they have to live in 1458 01:29:42,300 --> 01:29:44,940 a tent for a long period of time. But like yeah, there is 1459 01:29:44,940 --> 01:29:47,850 not a lot of money sent but the money does not reach the ground. 1460 01:29:47,850 --> 01:29:51,480 So a lot of the initiatives like this one that see like our our 1461 01:29:51,480 --> 01:29:54,360 group, we work only on private donations. 1462 01:29:54,810 --> 01:29:57,510 So that sounds like it's going extremely well. So next time we 1463 01:29:57,510 --> 01:30:00,810 have anyone in the European Union criticize As us of our 1464 01:30:00,810 --> 01:30:03,630 immigration policies, I'd like you to focus on the island of 1465 01:30:03,630 --> 01:30:07,740 Samos, as they have done something, and the what they've 1466 01:30:07,740 --> 01:30:11,400 done is they've determined it will be better to move this camp 1467 01:30:11,730 --> 01:30:16,110 a couple miles up the road. So it's further away from the main 1468 01:30:16,110 --> 01:30:19,050 drag the main city, but unfortunately, that puts it 1469 01:30:19,050 --> 01:30:23,610 exactly half a mile from a little village. A little 1470 01:30:23,610 --> 01:30:28,080 picturesque village in on the island of Samos in Greece, and 1471 01:30:28,080 --> 01:30:31,830 what your news did in this 20 minute piece, you know how they 1472 01:30:31,860 --> 01:30:34,980 they'll have someone talk and they'll just voice over it like, 1473 01:30:35,220 --> 01:30:39,360 you know, a translation. Yeah. overdubbing I guess is what they 1474 01:30:39,360 --> 01:30:46,020 call it. Yeah. Well, now it's like a complete radio play. And 1475 01:30:46,020 --> 01:30:49,320 with emotion, so they have a couple of people that just 1476 01:30:49,530 --> 01:30:53,430 impromptu town meeting. And it's, you know, couple old guys 1477 01:30:53,430 --> 01:30:56,460 couple old ladies and all Yellin but you don't know what they're 1478 01:30:56,460 --> 01:31:01,770 saying. But they've chopped it all together with the EURO NEWS 1479 01:31:01,770 --> 01:31:06,240 translated voices, but they're acting. I realized it's like a 1480 01:31:06,240 --> 01:31:07,290 radio play. 1481 01:31:07,380 --> 01:31:10,140 The Greek government has promised to close down the vathy 1482 01:31:10,140 --> 01:31:13,890 refugee center soon and to open a new and bigger one, if you 1483 01:31:13,890 --> 01:31:17,760 kilometers away from the capital geared use is the president of 1484 01:31:17,760 --> 01:31:21,120 the village of mytilini. Next to which the new camp is set to be 1485 01:31:21,120 --> 01:31:21,450 built, 1486 01:31:21,480 --> 01:31:24,030 here are the former slaughterhouses where the 1487 01:31:24,030 --> 01:31:28,230 migrant center is set to be installed. Here you can see 1488 01:31:28,230 --> 01:31:31,710 where my community is, the distance is one kilometre, so 1489 01:31:31,710 --> 01:31:35,850 you can understand the problem of Rafi will come to our 1490 01:31:35,850 --> 01:31:36,390 village, 1491 01:31:36,420 --> 01:31:40,350 the topic has inflamed the community, a group of villages 1492 01:31:40,470 --> 01:31:41,670 is expecting us. 1493 01:31:41,970 --> 01:31:44,700 Don't let them go to the destination they want to go to. 1494 01:31:44,760 --> 01:31:48,120 And we are keeping them here by force. So they are giving us 1495 01:31:48,120 --> 01:31:51,180 their misery. I mean, their misery becomes ours. 1496 01:31:51,630 --> 01:31:55,230 Just can't be people wandering around without us knowing who 1497 01:31:55,230 --> 01:31:59,940 they are. They might be criminals, rapists, we 1498 01:31:59,940 --> 01:32:02,850 don't want them here. That's the issue. They can take them 1499 01:32:02,850 --> 01:32:05,520 wherever they want. But we're here. We don't want them. That's 1500 01:32:05,520 --> 01:32:05,880 it. 1501 01:32:05,910 --> 01:32:09,600 We cannot live with those people. They have 800 diseases. 1502 01:32:10,050 --> 01:32:13,260 If you go to the hospital, it is full of black people. Oh, no, 1503 01:32:13,260 --> 01:32:16,920 they still live with them. We will take the law into our own 1504 01:32:16,920 --> 01:32:17,730 hands. Quite 1505 01:32:17,730 --> 01:32:22,620 possibly. This all sounds racist? We are no, please don't 1506 01:32:22,620 --> 01:32:25,980 associate us with this term. And we've had it up to here. 1507 01:32:26,580 --> 01:32:29,610 Close its borders. And it is Greece that has paid the price 1508 01:32:29,610 --> 01:32:30,000 for it. 1509 01:32:30,059 --> 01:32:33,929 Those Europeans who take and give orders, can't they 1510 01:32:33,929 --> 01:32:37,559 understand that the only thing they are going to achieve? Is 1511 01:32:37,559 --> 01:32:40,709 the rise of the far right. Little by little they are 1512 01:32:40,709 --> 01:32:44,999 pushing us to the extreme. This is what Europe has succeeded in 1513 01:32:45,029 --> 01:32:46,859 this is what you should tell them. 1514 01:32:47,970 --> 01:32:51,870 I don't know. I thought it was kind of cool as a radio play. 1515 01:32:52,290 --> 01:32:52,770 Yeah. 1516 01:32:54,990 --> 01:32:58,290 That's funny. Well, yeah, they can bitch and moan about what we 1517 01:32:58,290 --> 01:33:01,770 do. But that's gotta be a mess over there. This whole thing is 1518 01:33:01,770 --> 01:33:04,380 a joke. You know, I'm reminded as listening to all this, as 1519 01:33:04,380 --> 01:33:08,310 you're just playing these clips, and I'm thinking, the Europeans 1520 01:33:08,310 --> 01:33:13,200 really don't have a culture to do to manage the EU, in the 1521 01:33:13,230 --> 01:33:18,270 formation of the United States, even when we had 13 colonies, 1522 01:33:18,270 --> 01:33:21,330 let alone when we started expanding, if you read the 1523 01:33:21,330 --> 01:33:24,630 literature from that era, the Europeans scoffed at what we're 1524 01:33:24,630 --> 01:33:27,750 up to, especially when we went independent, decided to become 1525 01:33:27,750 --> 01:33:32,220 one big group, as opposed to the small colonies that were all 1526 01:33:32,250 --> 01:33:35,490 owned by different parts of Europe, in many ways, or 1527 01:33:35,760 --> 01:33:40,710 slightly independent, but not too far, was that at the point 1528 01:33:40,710 --> 01:33:48,420 of the 7076 era, it was believed that the country was too big to 1529 01:33:48,420 --> 01:33:51,450 manage this is going to be the downfall of the United States is 1530 01:33:51,450 --> 01:33:53,430 that these 13 colonies 1531 01:33:53,880 --> 01:33:57,240 you can't make shall never work. Yes, exactly. 1532 01:33:57,630 --> 01:34:00,600 And so the there was all of the agreements of French would say 1533 01:34:00,600 --> 01:34:04,080 that the Brits would say that to everybody. It was too big. I 1534 01:34:04,080 --> 01:34:06,210 mean, look at the size of the euro, some of our countries and 1535 01:34:06,210 --> 01:34:09,000 there's already too big meanwhile, so they go from that 1536 01:34:09,000 --> 01:34:12,780 kind of thinking over hundreds of years. And there's Donald 1537 01:34:12,780 --> 01:34:15,630 change that into one language, they don't do anything in Europe 1538 01:34:15,630 --> 01:34:18,420 to to make it easier. They still have all their separate little 1539 01:34:18,420 --> 01:34:22,170 languages. And they decided to make one big monstrosity and try 1540 01:34:22,170 --> 01:34:24,570 to manage it with a bunch of bureaucrats running it out of 1541 01:34:24,570 --> 01:34:27,660 Belgium. Does this make any sense to anybody? Historically? 1542 01:34:27,660 --> 01:34:28,200 No, 1543 01:34:28,320 --> 01:34:34,080 no. And by the way in, in the Netherlands, as there was a 1544 01:34:34,080 --> 01:34:38,880 smallish town that has a local newspaper, and the local 1545 01:34:38,880 --> 01:34:44,370 newspaper was not allowed by the authorities to inform the 1546 01:34:44,370 --> 01:34:51,420 community that there would be a new asylum seeker center. That 1547 01:34:51,420 --> 01:34:56,730 will be set up right near their town. This is how bad it is. 1548 01:34:56,880 --> 01:34:57,270 Over 1549 01:34:57,360 --> 01:34:59,430 what how did that go over? 1550 01:34:59,460 --> 01:35:04,170 Not very Well, in fact, the entire news desk, quit the 1551 01:35:04,170 --> 01:35:06,600 paper, the paper quit itself pretty much. 1552 01:35:08,849 --> 01:35:10,859 Why? What's the paper got to do? 1553 01:35:10,919 --> 01:35:14,369 Because they were not allowed to publish this news. And they were 1554 01:35:14,369 --> 01:35:18,149 forbidden from publishing this news. So no one there knew about 1555 01:35:18,149 --> 01:35:21,029 it until all of a sudden this they start building this center 1556 01:35:21,029 --> 01:35:23,249 like well, what is this? Well, they can have asylum seekers 1557 01:35:23,249 --> 01:35:27,539 over here, which of course, in Liberal Europe, everybody loves 1558 01:35:27,569 --> 01:35:31,469 people coming seeking asylum. But you know, where we don't 1559 01:35:31,469 --> 01:35:34,499 want it. Yeah, NIMBY NIMBY. Exactly. 1560 01:35:36,420 --> 01:35:40,890 Yeah. Well, I do have some news from over here. Really? I guess. 1561 01:35:41,400 --> 01:35:44,760 Okay. I have a couple of clips that bothered me because there's 1562 01:35:44,760 --> 01:35:49,020 missing information. All right. This one here's the barge report 1563 01:35:49,350 --> 01:35:52,710 from CBS where we had a little spill wipe this 1564 01:35:52,710 --> 01:35:55,830 afternoon two barges and an oil tanker collided in a shipping 1565 01:35:55,830 --> 01:35:59,970 channel in Houston.

All 1604 01:38:05,310 --> 01:38:08,970 it's a witch's brew, and it makes the it's used to boost the 1605 01:38:08,970 --> 01:38:11,460 octane of normal gas, 1606 01:38:11,640 --> 01:38:14,820 some supercharged fish in Houston? Well, 1607 01:38:14,850 --> 01:38:17,430 it's the thing that was left out of the report, in my opinion, is 1608 01:38:17,430 --> 01:38:21,030 the fact that benzene, which is highly carcinogenic, was leaked 1609 01:38:21,030 --> 01:38:22,830 into the water and nobody's talking about it. 1610 01:38:23,910 --> 01:38:28,560 Damn, and not just a little bit. So this is fun. So this is a 1611 01:38:28,560 --> 01:38:32,790 cover up then because I mean, and just even if your report is 1612 01:38:32,790 --> 01:38:35,490 poor reporting No, it's it sounds more like 1613 01:38:35,490 --> 01:38:37,950 that. I probably shouldn't get all bent out of shape if you say 1614 01:38:37,950 --> 01:38:42,090 that. So yeah, don't really get a public bent out of shape about 1615 01:38:42,090 --> 01:38:44,580 the fact you've got a bunch of benzene in the water, which is 1616 01:38:44,580 --> 01:38:50,520 not a good product. No. But yeah, but they were they had 1617 01:38:50,520 --> 01:38:53,760 covered up toxic and as you know, tell you when it's not, 1618 01:38:53,970 --> 01:38:55,020 these things aren't theirs. 1619 01:38:55,860 --> 01:38:58,680 But this stuff we'll get into here, we'll get into the water 1620 01:38:58,680 --> 01:39:00,090 supply eventually, won't it? 1621 01:39:00,420 --> 01:39:05,400 I don't know. Most of the operates now sold high end, I 1622 01:39:05,400 --> 01:39:09,660 mean, it's all very volatile, so it'll go away. So not that big 1623 01:39:09,660 --> 01:39:11,670 a problem. Now if you boil the 1624 01:39:11,670 --> 01:39:15,300 channel, this stuff will come right off. 1625 01:39:17,490 --> 01:39:20,220 Don't worry, just boil your arm and it'll rub right off. 1626 01:39:20,400 --> 01:39:22,650 That's already say I always tell people you know, if you're gonna 1627 01:39:22,650 --> 01:39:27,030 use the you know, most most oils, I'm gonna get a lecture on 1628 01:39:27,030 --> 01:39:30,480 this but most oils that you get, unless they're specifically say 1629 01:39:30,480 --> 01:39:35,130 expeller or crushed, depends on how the oil is made. But you 1630 01:39:35,130 --> 01:39:39,090 know, first virgin olive oil first press is pressed and then 1631 01:39:39,360 --> 01:39:42,480 a lot of a lot of oils are expellers and expellers. Spin it 1632 01:39:42,480 --> 01:39:46,830 around, it comes out of the seeds and whatever. But most oil 1633 01:39:46,830 --> 01:39:51,180 production like that did Mazola the giant gallons of oil that 1634 01:39:51,180 --> 01:39:54,870 you get, yes hence to be a hexane extracted which is the 1635 01:39:54,870 --> 01:39:57,810 easiest way to pull oil out of nuts and fruits and whatever 1636 01:39:57,810 --> 01:40:00,750 you're pulling the seeds whatever You're pulling the oil 1637 01:40:00,750 --> 01:40:03,990 out of his you extract with hexane, make a mash put hexane 1638 01:40:03,990 --> 01:40:07,590 in there, flash it off and you end up with some oil. The 1639 01:40:07,590 --> 01:40:12,300 problem is there's always risk, I believe, I believe that 1640 01:40:12,300 --> 01:40:15,900 there's no way you can flash all the hexane off. And so you end 1641 01:40:15,900 --> 01:40:21,840 up with a some residual hexane and the oils. And now a lot of 1642 01:40:21,840 --> 01:40:24,660 natural food fanatics. Oh my god, you can't use these oils 1643 01:40:24,660 --> 01:40:29,520 for anything. You can use these oils I also believe based on 1644 01:40:29,520 --> 01:40:33,510 just basic chemistry, that if you Yeah, if you take the corn 1645 01:40:33,510 --> 01:40:36,990 oil that's been hexane extracted and using your salad dressing 1646 01:40:36,990 --> 01:40:40,560 you're probably going to ingest some so you don't use that you 1647 01:40:40,560 --> 01:40:44,070 use olive oil Of course of course we don't use but if 1648 01:40:44,070 --> 01:40:46,470 you're gonna use it for making French fries which eat that oil 1649 01:40:46,470 --> 01:40:51,300 up to 320 plus degrees if there's any residual in there 1650 01:40:51,300 --> 01:40:53,610 it's gone. So it's safe. 1651 01:40:53,700 --> 01:41:00,930 So do I go long oil or short based upon? I don't know. I love 1652 01:41:00,930 --> 01:41:04,560 how you know you I'd love you to throw out the based on basic 1653 01:41:04,890 --> 01:41:07,920 chemistry that you lost me it can 1654 01:41:08,730 --> 01:41:12,780 yes okay, you know, yes things flash off and 1655 01:41:13,260 --> 01:41:14,880 now does that work with chicks? 1656 01:41:16,320 --> 01:41:20,820 No, it turns out unless they're Kim chemistry nerds 1657 01:41:21,480 --> 01:41:24,150 doesn't really work or with any of them and just want to make 1658 01:41:24,150 --> 01:41:24,480 sure 1659 01:41:25,740 --> 01:41:29,820 no, it's not a chick magnet. Remember who's doing it for 1660 01:41:29,820 --> 01:41:31,830 people out there who like to cook and they're always you know 1661 01:41:31,830 --> 01:41:35,220 the read about this and that about you it is overpriced 1662 01:41:35,220 --> 01:41:41,400 expeller oils. I mean I cook I tried to cook blue and I french 1663 01:41:41,400 --> 01:41:44,670 fry I tried to cook and safflower or sunflower oil, 1664 01:41:44,790 --> 01:41:48,090 which is a really good oil for deep fat Frank, 1665 01:41:48,120 --> 01:41:54,810 I've gotten kind of hooked on the sorghum syrup. I know it's 1666 01:41:54,900 --> 01:41:59,940 what growing up in Holland. In the Netherlands for breakfast. 1667 01:42:00,240 --> 01:42:04,440 There's there's really, that certainly younger kids will have 1668 01:42:04,530 --> 01:42:08,460 a slice of bread or maybe two slices, buttered up with 1669 01:42:08,460 --> 01:42:13,410 margarine actually. And then they either put chocolate flakes 1670 01:42:13,440 --> 01:42:17,130 on there or chocolate sprinkles, they can also do they can do the 1671 01:42:17,130 --> 01:42:21,090 colored sprinkles, but also molasses just spreading molasses 1672 01:42:21,120 --> 01:42:25,950 on top of the butter, right and I grew up eating that. Or they 1673 01:42:25,950 --> 01:42:28,320 can go the other way and have a piece of bread again with the 1674 01:42:28,320 --> 01:42:32,190 margarine slash butter. Then slices of young age Gouda 1675 01:42:32,190 --> 01:42:36,180 cheese. That will be another another fan favorite in the 1676 01:42:36,180 --> 01:42:41,010 morning, but also for lunch. But as you know, I just took a piece 1677 01:42:41,010 --> 01:42:46,290 of bread and I put some some butter on it. I put the sorghum 1678 01:42:46,290 --> 01:42:51,270 syrup and oh my god, it took me aback is delicious. It's 1679 01:42:51,270 --> 01:42:55,800 delicious. It sounds like it should taste like poop. Sorghum. 1680 01:42:55,800 --> 01:42:59,520 That doesn't sound appealing. But when you try it's good man. 1681 01:42:59,610 --> 01:43:02,100 That is sorghum pancake for breakfast today. 1682 01:43:02,910 --> 01:43:06,570 We should try my sorghum syrup on your sorghum pancake. 1683 01:43:07,530 --> 01:43:11,610 You know, I like the one great delicacy that the United States 1684 01:43:11,610 --> 01:43:18,570 has pretty much Jemima Canada. And Jemima is is maple syrup not 1685 01:43:18,570 --> 01:43:22,680 answer my mantra. My name is got sugar, water, fructose corn 1686 01:43:22,680 --> 01:43:26,340 syrup, and all kinds of crap and who knows what's in there. But a 1687 01:43:26,340 --> 01:43:35,970 real 100% Maple syrup is a is a delicacy is rather cheap. 1688 01:43:36,000 --> 01:43:38,640 Considering how rare and valuable it is 1689 01:43:38,670 --> 01:43:40,440 around the world. It's very expensive. 1690 01:43:41,010 --> 01:43:45,450 Yeah. So all right back off of the food thing. Okay, 1691 01:43:45,480 --> 01:43:49,770 well, just a few updates. Jussie Smollett will not return to 1692 01:43:49,770 --> 01:43:52,590 Empire for next season. He's done. Oh, he's 1693 01:43:52,590 --> 01:43:53,730 on again off again. 1694 01:43:53,759 --> 01:43:59,789 I guess now it's off. Just the you know, the fox is Fox News. 1695 01:44:00,419 --> 01:44:04,199 Fox made their decisions and now it's not worth it. So he's off. 1696 01:44:04,229 --> 01:44:04,769 Good. 1697 01:44:05,970 --> 01:44:10,920 Liar. Yeah. Good. fries with that 1698 01:44:10,950 --> 01:44:16,200 Bernie Sanders and AOC are calling for the creation of 1699 01:44:16,200 --> 01:44:21,900 government owned banks run by the US Post Office. And I want 1700 01:44:21,900 --> 01:44:23,280 to say I've, well, 1701 01:44:23,280 --> 01:44:25,410 we should like your savings in stamps. 1702 01:44:25,590 --> 01:44:28,350 Well, I've used this system. When I when I was growing up. It 1703 01:44:28,350 --> 01:44:30,990 was quite popular in the Netherlands. And it was called 1704 01:44:30,990 --> 01:44:35,250 post Hiro. And you literally did your banking at the post office, 1705 01:44:35,280 --> 01:44:38,280 or you could do it through the mail, which was free, and you 1706 01:44:38,280 --> 01:44:41,550 filled out your little card for payments, and it's still there 1707 01:44:41,550 --> 01:44:46,020 and you can still do now they do it online, but it's what 1708 01:44:46,020 --> 01:44:52,980 interests me is why don't they promote a credit unions? We mean 1709 01:44:53,010 --> 01:44:56,190 doesn't necessarily have to be a government run thing for it to 1710 01:44:56,190 --> 01:44:59,220 be more of a nonprofit model and a bank that's not trying to 1711 01:44:59,220 --> 01:45:02,640 screw you. Oh, or at least, is being honest about not getting 1712 01:45:02,640 --> 01:45:06,210 back in deals for the worst they screw you. And that's a credit 1713 01:45:06,210 --> 01:45:09,540 union and we have them all over the United States and, and they 1714 01:45:09,540 --> 01:45:13,560 are community banking to its maximum. You don't have to be in 1715 01:45:13,560 --> 01:45:21,270 a game yet. Yeah. But the having a banking system within the post 1716 01:45:21,270 --> 01:45:24,120 office it's I mean, I don't know if we could do it with our with 1717 01:45:24,120 --> 01:45:27,360 our postal system, but it's not a bad idea necessarily. 1718 01:45:28,350 --> 01:45:29,550 I've seen it work lines. 1719 01:45:29,580 --> 01:45:30,510 I've seen it work. 1720 01:45:31,770 --> 01:45:34,920 Yeah, you've seen it work but a lot of post offices because 1721 01:45:34,920 --> 01:45:38,010 they're a little five times in the United States. It'd be some 1722 01:45:38,010 --> 01:45:39,480 issue with customer service. 1723 01:45:39,600 --> 01:45:42,240 Oh, well, I mean, just like me I don't have a mailbox so just 1724 01:45:42,240 --> 01:45:45,030 imagine like you move look sorry, you don't have any money. 1725 01:45:47,130 --> 01:45:50,550 Sorry, we we don't we don't know where your where your money 1726 01:45:50,550 --> 01:45:51,720 account is. is gone. 1727 01:45:52,710 --> 01:45:55,890 Don't cut it another clip. That is I consider something of a 1728 01:45:55,890 --> 01:45:59,190 gaffe. Or maybe not. I'm not sure. But it would seem to me 1729 01:45:59,190 --> 01:46:03,480 that if you were a news reader, and you were an or an expert, or 1730 01:46:04,080 --> 01:46:06,960 you remember the woman who was the head of Planned Parenthood, 1731 01:46:06,990 --> 01:46:08,190 kind of the yes, the 1732 01:46:08,190 --> 01:46:13,830 CEO Rogers. No, no, no, no, no, no. Roger. Cecile Richards. 1733 01:46:13,830 --> 01:46:14,820 Richards. Yes. 1734 01:46:15,059 --> 01:46:18,179 I'd like I've always liked Chris Watts and Richard's daughter if 1735 01:46:18,179 --> 01:46:21,479 you remember. Yes, I do. Yeah. From the Texas governor. Look, 1736 01:46:21,479 --> 01:46:24,389 she's starting I hate you. I know what you're gonna say she's 1737 01:46:24,389 --> 01:46:27,389 attractive. Except no more recently, having been booted out 1738 01:46:27,389 --> 01:46:30,299 of Planned Parenthood. She really is starting to look like 1739 01:46:30,299 --> 01:46:34,409 George Soros. Oh, man. 1740 01:46:36,870 --> 01:46:40,050 Recently, I didn't catch the sore last five. 1741 01:46:40,470 --> 01:46:46,350 Yes. That Sith look for you. Or your Star Wars folk. Yeah, she's 1742 01:46:46,350 --> 01:46:51,570 starting to look Sith so I mean, that's you know, a drawback but 1743 01:46:51,570 --> 01:46:54,420 she was on with Amy and there's a little gaff in here. I want to 1744 01:46:54,420 --> 01:46:59,130 see if you can spot it. I don't know that you you will. But you 1745 01:46:59,130 --> 01:47:02,670 might. But I did immediately. And I just had to go back 1746 01:47:02,670 --> 01:47:06,720 Michelle with his bullcrap. Bucky not know this. Okay, let's 1747 01:47:06,720 --> 01:47:07,290 have a listen. 1748 01:47:07,320 --> 01:47:10,710 And anyone who wants to be elected has to respond to the 1749 01:47:10,710 --> 01:47:13,410 issues that women care about. So that'll be a lot of the 1750 01:47:13,410 --> 01:47:17,100 organizing work. We're doing both online and offline in the 1751 01:47:17,100 --> 01:47:17,970 coming months. 1752 01:47:18,810 --> 01:47:22,140 Four Democratic women have now announced their plans to run for 1753 01:47:22,140 --> 01:47:24,780 president the significance of this for you and will you be 1754 01:47:24,780 --> 01:47:25,470 endorsing? 1755 01:47:25,860 --> 01:47:28,710 I think the importance of obviously, there's there's no 1756 01:47:28,710 --> 01:47:31,500 way to overstate the importance of women running for president 1757 01:47:31,500 --> 01:47:34,470 and I'm thrilled that they are and I think they're raising 1758 01:47:34,470 --> 01:47:39,090 issues that have long been needed to be raised. I think 1759 01:47:39,120 --> 01:47:42,720 it's it's disturbing, to see what I believe is a real double 1760 01:47:42,720 --> 01:47:45,990 standard and how they are being treated versus the many, many, 1761 01:47:45,990 --> 01:47:49,050 many men that are running for president. You know, two thirds 1762 01:47:49,050 --> 01:47:52,890 of political reporting is still done by men. And so I'm hoping 1763 01:47:52,890 --> 01:47:56,730 that both through supermajority through other folks that follow 1764 01:47:56,730 --> 01:47:59,250 the media, we can actually be lifting up the important work 1765 01:47:59,250 --> 01:48:02,400 that these women have done. As you probably know, these are 1766 01:48:02,400 --> 01:48:05,520 women who, in large part have never lost a political race. And 1767 01:48:05,520 --> 01:48:08,640 so when people talk about women being unelectable, I think it's 1768 01:48:08,640 --> 01:48:10,950 really important to look at their record because it stands 1769 01:48:10,950 --> 01:48:14,310 up. Really in contrast to a lot of the a lot of the men who are 1770 01:48:14,310 --> 01:48:16,320 actually in the race right now. 1771 01:48:20,820 --> 01:48:22,440 Who is she working for now? 1772 01:48:23,250 --> 01:48:26,790 Oh, it's some says God says you'd look her up. He had some 1773 01:48:26,790 --> 01:48:30,450 more some. That's like, not a lobbying group. But as some, you 1774 01:48:30,450 --> 01:48:33,630 know, NGO, kind of an operation and why 1775 01:48:33,630 --> 01:48:34,860 did she leave? 1776 01:48:35,849 --> 01:48:40,199 I don't know. Plan. That clip was more about the gaff, which I 1777 01:48:40,229 --> 01:48:44,669 think was inexcusable considering we have Amy who's a 1778 01:48:44,669 --> 01:48:48,299 newsreader and knows that knows should know about this because 1779 01:48:48,299 --> 01:48:51,959 it's about they're talking about women politicians and and, and 1780 01:48:51,959 --> 01:48:54,449 Richard should have said something. So what was the 1781 01:48:54,449 --> 01:48:59,669 guest? There are four women running for president is the 1782 01:48:59,669 --> 01:49:11,039 gaps. There's five okay, I considered a huge gap and you're 1783 01:49:11,039 --> 01:49:14,459 a woman. And you're all for women running for the booth 1784 01:49:14,459 --> 01:49:17,219 naming them now naming them but Hillary it would be six but 1785 01:49:17,219 --> 01:49:21,089 Hillary is not running through our five, not four. And I think 1786 01:49:21,089 --> 01:49:24,359 it was I think they purposely forget one. And I think the one 1787 01:49:24,359 --> 01:49:25,889 they keep forgetting is Tulsi Tulsi 1788 01:49:25,890 --> 01:49:28,680 Gabbard, yes. They don't even consider her a contender for 1789 01:49:28,680 --> 01:49:29,370 some reason. 1790 01:49:29,880 --> 01:49:35,940 Yes, they issue her with a stick a thumb in her eye and they say 1791 01:49:35,940 --> 01:49:40,230 for the for they're talking about is is Klobuchar Harris. 1792 01:49:41,040 --> 01:49:45,840 Warren and Gillibrand. Right. And the fifth one is Tulsi 1793 01:49:45,840 --> 01:49:47,700 Gabbard, that's so 1794 01:49:47,700 --> 01:49:52,830 rude. But it's not it's not unexpected. And I've thought 1795 01:49:52,830 --> 01:49:55,140 first of all, I like Tulsi Gabbard. Tulsi 1796 01:49:55,140 --> 01:49:57,540 Gabbard is the only anti war when we're talking about the war 1797 01:49:57,540 --> 01:50:01,680 and that's what I'm saying. That's all What I like Tulsi 1798 01:50:01,680 --> 01:50:04,560 Gabbard a lot of liked her since we first became aware of her 1799 01:50:04,590 --> 01:50:07,890 five years ago, maybe six years ago and said that she could 1800 01:50:07,890 --> 01:50:11,400 totally be president. But her message is wrong. She's hates 1801 01:50:11,400 --> 01:50:15,240 war as a veteran. She's been in war and so that's wrong. But she 1802 01:50:15,270 --> 01:50:22,530 also has a view. She has zero stage presence. She, she's very 1803 01:50:22,530 --> 01:50:27,090 I mean, she's stately, and she speaks thoughtfully and slowly 1804 01:50:27,090 --> 01:50:29,940 but who gives a crap? No one cared. No one wants that 1805 01:50:29,940 --> 01:50:33,780 anymore. We need to see fire and both shatter people. Yes, yes, 1806 01:50:33,780 --> 01:50:37,170 yes. Yes, we need fire and passion and, and pissed off 1807 01:50:37,170 --> 01:50:40,140 SNESs. And now she doesn't have any of that. But for her to just 1808 01:50:40,140 --> 01:50:42,960 be excluded by these top women is very 1809 01:50:43,230 --> 01:50:46,590 sad that she's the one they excluded. Because they never 1810 01:50:46,590 --> 01:50:49,020 mentioned names. Obvious. Yeah, I 1811 01:50:49,020 --> 01:50:50,760 agree with. I agree with you. 1812 01:50:52,140 --> 01:50:56,430 So there's only four women running? Yeah. Yeah. bullcrap. 1813 01:50:56,490 --> 01:51:00,720 And I'm looking at a Wikipedia page. But oh, what does no 1814 01:51:00,720 --> 01:51:02,520 doesn't say where she's currently working. 1815 01:51:04,290 --> 01:51:06,720 It's um, it's somewhat weird organization. 1816 01:51:06,990 --> 01:51:09,180 I'd like to know what happened there because I thought she was 1817 01:51:09,180 --> 01:51:12,180 on I actually thought she was on her way into politics. It seemed 1818 01:51:12,180 --> 01:51:16,380 like she would be perfect to do some good in the Democratic 1819 01:51:16,380 --> 01:51:16,770 Party. 1820 01:51:16,860 --> 01:51:19,500 And must have been some scandal. No one ever wanted to bring 1821 01:51:19,530 --> 01:51:22,290 some things going on. Yeah, maybe we just missed that. 1822 01:51:22,320 --> 01:51:26,640 If you dodge the needle from measles. That's illegal. Or if 1823 01:51:26,670 --> 01:51:29,910 you catch the measles, you will die. 1824 01:51:29,940 --> 01:51:33,540 Yes. Yes. Tracking the measles because it's just so much fun to 1825 01:51:33,540 --> 01:51:38,010 do. We spread over to Europe 100,000 People with the measles 1826 01:51:38,010 --> 01:51:39,750 just tell them how important it is. 1827 01:51:41,100 --> 01:51:45,750 I mean, measles is is a horrible disease and it can kill. It does 1828 01:51:45,750 --> 01:51:48,930 spread very, very quickly. And so the only way to protect 1829 01:51:48,930 --> 01:51:51,360 yourself is to make sure you've had the full course of vaccine 1830 01:51:51,360 --> 01:51:54,090 and it's never too late. Just because your child is a little 1831 01:51:54,090 --> 01:51:56,400 bit older now they can still go and get their vaccine from the 1832 01:51:56,400 --> 01:51:56,820 GP. 1833 01:51:57,660 --> 01:52:02,010 Go get your shots, get booster. Get the shots. How do you get 1834 01:52:02,010 --> 01:52:04,590 all these people getting infected? These shots are 1835 01:52:04,620 --> 01:52:07,830 distilled water. I think this is a scam. 1836 01:52:08,340 --> 01:52:10,980 You know I'm with you. It's like everyone's so worried. Now we 1837 01:52:10,980 --> 01:52:14,970 know that if you've been inoculated you cannot get you 1838 01:52:14,970 --> 01:52:17,730 cannot get it again. If you've had it you can't get it again. 1839 01:52:18,030 --> 01:52:21,750 But now there's these wishy washy you need a booster 9497 1840 01:52:21,870 --> 01:52:24,570 Look if you if you protected by the vaccine and what are you 1841 01:52:24,570 --> 01:52:28,380 worried about? Was everybody freaking out you Alabama County 1842 01:52:28,380 --> 01:52:33,720 Fair? Oh my there was a five month old baby tomato everybody 1843 01:52:33,720 --> 01:52:36,870 freak out nine five we first broke this Live at Five we were 1844 01:52:36,870 --> 01:52:39,630 on the for the new information that the testing for that St. 1845 01:52:39,630 --> 01:52:45,420 Clair County baby presumed to have measles was negative sigh 1846 01:52:45,420 --> 01:52:45,930 of relief. 1847 01:52:45,990 --> 01:52:49,380 Ooh. Cremation from Alabama's Department of Health once you 1848 01:52:49,380 --> 01:52:50,310 find out Alan. 1849 01:52:50,550 --> 01:52:52,470 Well, those are the results and you know when we we've been 1850 01:52:52,470 --> 01:52:55,140 seeing this all along. You know, while there was concerns you 1851 01:52:55,140 --> 01:52:57,660 might have had measles, we're talking about that five month 1852 01:52:57,660 --> 01:53:00,150 Euro infant over in St. Clair County but you know, tests had 1853 01:53:00,150 --> 01:53:03,030 to be done what had to be done by the CDC. The tests weren't 1854 01:53:03,030 --> 01:53:05,310 done there were eventually the Public Health Department 1855 01:53:05,310 --> 01:53:08,040 releasing late this afternoon. It might be a rash of some sort, 1856 01:53:08,040 --> 01:53:11,250 but it's definitely not measles. Now we can tell you the public 1857 01:53:11,250 --> 01:53:14,880 health department they are investigating about 80 cases 1858 01:53:14,880 --> 01:53:17,700 going on right now in Alabama as an investigation the Public 1859 01:53:17,700 --> 01:53:21,090 Health Department has already dismissed 170 of those 1860 01:53:21,090 --> 01:53:24,690 investigation in cases again those were not measles stay the 1861 01:53:24,690 --> 01:53:26,130 head of health visual we've been that 1862 01:53:26,130 --> 01:53:29,130 must be that fifth disease that the what we were talking about. 1863 01:53:29,160 --> 01:53:32,430 If it's not measles, things like well, it's not measles move on. 1864 01:53:32,460 --> 01:53:35,190 Well, hold on. I think that's kind of important to know if 1865 01:53:35,190 --> 01:53:36,990 there's something that looks like measles gets everyone all 1866 01:53:36,990 --> 01:53:39,270 freaked out. That's that's measles telling 1867 01:53:39,270 --> 01:53:42,360 you as you heard St. Clair County that little girl it was 1868 01:53:42,360 --> 01:53:47,280 presumptive positive until the actual presumptive positive nice 1869 01:53:47,280 --> 01:53:50,700 tests were done and examined. And that was by the CDC. So no 1870 01:53:50,700 --> 01:53:53,310 measles in Alabama, but remember, we have those at 1871 01:53:53,310 --> 01:53:56,070 investigations. And of course they will we can also tell you 1872 01:53:56,070 --> 01:53:58,920 the health department they look into communicable vaccinated 1873 01:53:58,920 --> 01:54:02,190 cases the possible diseases all the time. So that's is this is 1874 01:54:02,190 --> 01:54:02,610 not that. 1875 01:54:04,830 --> 01:54:07,200 I think that's what he's doing. He's auctioning off this idea 1876 01:54:07,200 --> 01:54:08,130 that we all need to get a shot 1877 01:54:08,130 --> 01:54:11,160 and catch up with Dr. Karen Landers. Today. She just with 1878 01:54:11,160 --> 01:54:14,310 the Public Health Department. Tell me overall Alabama is still 1879 01:54:14,310 --> 01:54:17,010 in very good shape when it comes to measles. We're a highly 1880 01:54:17,010 --> 01:54:20,910 vaccinated state. Still, you know, there is that possibility 1881 01:54:21,030 --> 01:54:24,030 somebody unvaccinated gets exposed elsewhere. 1882 01:54:24,180 --> 01:54:25,950 You meant a vaccine year comes here 1883 01:54:25,980 --> 01:54:29,160 could cause a problem. If you have any questions again, check 1884 01:54:29,160 --> 01:54:31,410 with your doctor. He'll let you know if possible. If you need to 1885 01:54:31,410 --> 01:54:32,580 get a booster or not. 1886 01:54:32,610 --> 01:54:35,820 I get two booster. I think we should get boosters. Let's get 1887 01:54:35,820 --> 01:54:39,600 boosters for our anniversary, baby. Let's get a booster 1888 01:54:39,600 --> 01:54:43,530 together. And there's some Yahoo Jumoke in San Francisco who's 1889 01:54:43,530 --> 01:54:47,160 been you know, if you want to get out of this, you know you 1890 01:54:47,160 --> 01:54:49,560 can buy your way into school you can buy your way out of 1891 01:54:49,560 --> 01:54:50,430 vaccines. 1892 01:54:50,460 --> 01:54:54,150 We showed up at the offices of Dr. Kenneth Stoller on Broadway 1893 01:54:54,150 --> 01:54:57,420 whose medical records will be reviewed by the San Francisco 1894 01:54:57,420 --> 01:54:59,730 city attorney's office as part of 1895 01:54:59,730 --> 01:55:04,440 a ongoing investigation into whether or not this particular 1896 01:55:04,440 --> 01:55:08,910 doctor was granting medical exemptions to patients that 1897 01:55:08,910 --> 01:55:10,020 didn't qualify for them. 1898 01:55:10,260 --> 01:55:13,920 There's no hiding the fact that Stoller has issued medical 1899 01:55:13,920 --> 01:55:17,700 exemptions for vaccination purposes. We found people had 1900 01:55:17,700 --> 01:55:21,840 written on Google review about his work. I am so grateful to 1901 01:55:21,840 --> 01:55:22,050 have. 1902 01:55:22,350 --> 01:55:26,760 This is now journalism. Well, we checked out the web, and we got 1903 01:55:26,760 --> 01:55:31,470 a Google review page. It's like Yelp only shittier. Let's read 1904 01:55:31,470 --> 01:55:32,520 that for everybody. We 1905 01:55:32,520 --> 01:55:36,450 found people had written on Google review about his work. I 1906 01:55:36,450 --> 01:55:39,720 am so grateful to have found him to help my son regarding 1907 01:55:39,720 --> 01:55:44,130 vaccinations. Another posted we sought out Dr. Stoller, when in 1908 01:55:44,130 --> 01:55:47,100 the middle of spring of last year, my daughters were being 1909 01:55:47,100 --> 01:55:51,720 asked for new vaccine exemptions. Senate Bill 277, 1910 01:55:51,720 --> 01:55:55,920 which went into effect in 2016 says you can no longer cite 1911 01:55:55,920 --> 01:56:00,180 religious or personal beliefs to get out of vaccinating children. 1912 01:56:00,210 --> 01:56:02,820 I didn't know the state senators behind 1913 01:56:03,600 --> 01:56:09,180 Yeah, you can only get out of it if if you have cancer or if you 1914 01:56:09,180 --> 01:56:14,190 have an immune system issue, which quite honestly, you know, 1915 01:56:14,280 --> 01:56:18,060 you got a lot of other problems going on. intraday, of course 1916 01:56:18,060 --> 01:56:21,030 you want to introduce a virus but you probably shouldn't be in 1917 01:56:21,030 --> 01:56:24,060 school where the immune issue out of vaccinate, 1918 01:56:25,020 --> 01:56:27,150 nothing keep playing that clip in children. 1919 01:56:27,480 --> 01:56:32,580 But the two state senators behind 277 allowed for medical 1920 01:56:32,580 --> 01:56:36,690 exemptions which include a person's family history. Dr. 1921 01:56:36,690 --> 01:56:39,660 Stoller is attorney Skyped with us from back east. 1922 01:56:39,690 --> 01:56:44,160 So there are a group of doctors in California that have taken 1923 01:56:44,160 --> 01:56:48,090 these two centers at their word, and are issuing broader 1924 01:56:48,090 --> 01:56:51,390 indications based on family history, just like the Senator 1925 01:56:51,390 --> 01:56:51,690 said 1926 01:56:51,690 --> 01:56:52,770 they can do many but 1927 01:56:52,770 --> 01:56:56,190 now State Senator Richard Pan, one of the authors of the bill 1928 01:56:56,190 --> 01:56:59,850 says the law has been exploited by some doctors 1929 01:57:00,000 --> 01:57:02,670 because you know, we're having measles showing up people are 1930 01:57:02,670 --> 01:57:06,360 bringing it into our state, and we can't have measles spreading 1931 01:57:06,360 --> 01:57:07,680 rapidly through a school. 1932 01:57:07,710 --> 01:57:08,940 He's now behind. How 1933 01:57:08,940 --> 01:57:16,110 does that work? If 99% is is vaccinated, how can spread 1934 01:57:16,110 --> 01:57:17,820 rapidly through the school? 1935 01:57:18,990 --> 01:57:21,720 It makes no sense unless they're shooting people up with 1936 01:57:21,750 --> 01:57:24,570 distilled water in charge. The doctor doesn't want to boast 1937 01:57:25,380 --> 01:57:28,170 it's it's all comes razor really. And 1938 01:57:28,170 --> 01:57:31,650 we can't have measles spreading rapidly through a school. He's 1939 01:57:31,650 --> 01:57:31,890 now 1940 01:57:31,890 --> 01:57:36,360 behind another bill 276. This time calling for the state 1941 01:57:36,360 --> 01:57:41,010 health department to vet all medical exemptions. And both 1942 01:57:41,040 --> 01:57:44,280 state Senator Pan and the city attorney's office say they are 1943 01:57:44,280 --> 01:57:47,700 most concerned with kids who cannot get vaccinated because 1944 01:57:47,730 --> 01:57:51,900 they either have cancer or a compromised immune system. They 1945 01:57:51,900 --> 01:57:55,800 say well, she said that almost with disdain, but his kids could 1946 01:57:56,070 --> 01:57:58,230 get cancer but you can't get your shot because you got 1947 01:57:58,230 --> 01:57:59,760 cancer. What's wrong with your kid and 1948 01:57:59,760 --> 01:58:02,550 the city attorney's office say they are most concerned with 1949 01:58:02,550 --> 01:58:06,840 kids who cannot get vaccinated because they either have cancer 1950 01:58:07,050 --> 01:58:09,150 or a compromised immune system. They 1951 01:58:09,450 --> 01:58:11,100 these stupid ass kids 1952 01:58:11,490 --> 01:58:16,170 say they're the ones in real danger. So yeah, 1953 01:58:16,890 --> 01:58:21,780 California is becoming Florida. With these crazy stories, I got 1954 01:58:21,780 --> 01:58:22,920 a California story. 1955 01:58:23,639 --> 01:58:25,469 I just wanted to set before you move on just want to say 1956 01:58:25,469 --> 01:58:29,939 something about this, this semi Vax that the talk that we have, 1957 01:58:29,939 --> 01:58:32,279 because we're not anti vaxxers We're just you know, 1958 01:58:32,309 --> 01:58:33,839 you keep bringing this up. Yes, 1959 01:58:33,870 --> 01:58:36,540 it's important. You got to say it. I want to say it for people 1960 01:58:36,540 --> 01:58:40,470 who are just new listening to us. We appreciate what you are a 1961 01:58:40,470 --> 01:58:42,930 partner you John, but what everyone else is a part of with 1962 01:58:42,930 --> 01:58:46,440 this program. You can't say this stuff and post it on YouTube. 1963 01:58:46,680 --> 01:58:50,760 You can't say this stuff. Put it on Facebook. You can't say this 1964 01:58:50,760 --> 01:58:53,910 often. Oh, they listen to my great show on SoundCloud. You 1965 01:58:53,910 --> 01:58:57,870 can't you know, we can't sell CDs of this on Etsy. But just 1966 01:58:57,870 --> 01:59:00,870 because you're asking questions you get kicked off of that, 1967 01:59:00,930 --> 01:59:05,040 which is why we use the actual internet and all the pieces that 1968 01:59:05,040 --> 01:59:10,230 it includes. Let me close out the segment measles. How is the 1969 01:59:10,230 --> 01:59:13,500 general public right now? cases have been surging in the lab is 1970 01:59:13,500 --> 01:59:14,850 a 25 year hot. 1971 01:59:15,030 --> 01:59:19,020 Are you serious? The measles. All right, the measles. In San 1972 01:59:19,020 --> 01:59:22,110 Francisco. They have this story this is teacher has to pay for 1973 01:59:22,110 --> 01:59:23,640 her replacement story. 1974 01:59:24,780 --> 01:59:27,330 A California teacher who is battling breast cancer isn't 1975 01:59:27,330 --> 01:59:30,360 just facing mounting medical fees. She is also being forced 1976 01:59:30,360 --> 01:59:35,250 to pay for her own replacement. Turns out it is the law. Here's 1977 01:59:35,250 --> 01:59:36,090 Jamie Lucas. 1978 01:59:38,070 --> 01:59:41,340 She's a veteran second grade teacher at San Francisco's Glen 1979 01:59:41,340 --> 01:59:44,880 Park Elementary School. We're choosing not to identify her to 1980 01:59:44,880 --> 01:59:48,120 protect her privacy. When parents heard she was actually 1981 01:59:48,120 --> 01:59:51,840 required to pay for her own substitute. They were outraged 1982 01:59:51,840 --> 01:59:55,320 and launched a GoFundMe page to help cover costs. They could not 1983 01:59:55,320 --> 01:59:58,920 believe that. This could this could be happening that this 1984 01:59:58,920 --> 02:00:02,880 would be a lot Ah, the more I found out the more angry I got, 1985 02:00:03,090 --> 02:00:06,990 teachers can use 10 paid sick days per school year. Once those 1986 02:00:06,990 --> 02:00:10,980 are exhausted, they can use 100 days of extended sick leave and 1987 02:00:10,980 --> 02:00:14,940 receive their regular salary minus this substitutes pay what 1988 02:00:14,940 --> 02:00:18,540 doesn't seem fair at all. Connie Leyva chairs, the California 1989 02:00:18,540 --> 02:00:20,040 Senate Education Committee, 1990 02:00:20,190 --> 02:00:23,070 we would never want one of our teachers who is basically 1991 02:00:23,070 --> 02:00:26,070 educating our future to be worried about where their family 1992 02:00:26,070 --> 02:00:28,620 is going to be when they're out battling cancer. 1993 02:00:28,710 --> 02:00:31,680 Since the GoFundMe page was launched, at the end of last 1994 02:00:31,680 --> 02:00:36,840 month, nearly $14,000 has been raised well over the $10,000 1995 02:00:36,840 --> 02:00:40,530 goal. The teacher posted in appreciation, my heart is 1996 02:00:40,530 --> 02:00:43,740 lifted. And it gives me so much strength to know that so many 1997 02:00:43,740 --> 02:00:46,170 people care about me and my family. So I 1998 02:00:46,170 --> 02:00:49,620 hope next year our leaders in Sacramento will take a hard look 1999 02:00:49,620 --> 02:00:52,530 at that and make sure that they change the language in the law. 2000 02:00:52,560 --> 02:00:53,190 Jamie Lucas, 2001 02:00:53,310 --> 02:00:54,180 CBS News. 2002 02:00:54,390 --> 02:00:58,740 Yeah. What are you guys leaving the union? No, can't come 2003 02:00:58,740 --> 02:01:01,020 quicker. No matter can't come quick enough. 2004 02:01:01,950 --> 02:01:08,400 Now, I have one clip I want to play, which I think is I don't 2005 02:01:08,400 --> 02:01:11,760 know if we're gonna get to it or not. But we are now because we 2006 02:01:11,760 --> 02:01:14,490 talked about this in the last couple of shows. I think we've 2007 02:01:14,490 --> 02:01:16,020 discussed the false flag. 2008 02:01:16,380 --> 02:01:19,860 Yes, we were quite familiar with the flag of falseness. And it's 2009 02:01:19,860 --> 02:01:22,950 going to be in Iran. We need an Iranian false flag as well. We 2010 02:01:22,950 --> 02:01:23,580 got the fried out 2011 02:01:23,580 --> 02:01:28,440 of the this is the latest from CBS. And by the way I want to do 2012 02:01:28,440 --> 02:01:32,940 Jeff Gore's is quitting or go got no got fired. Oh, from the 2013 02:01:32,940 --> 02:01:36,840 CBS Evening News, he did have a very avid little short, his sign 2014 02:01:36,840 --> 02:01:40,050 off is very sweet, because it was mostly about the crew didn't 2015 02:01:40,050 --> 02:01:43,800 talk too much about himself. And then he actually quit on Friday 2016 02:01:43,800 --> 02:01:46,290 quit the show early and talked about the crew. And he said he 2017 02:01:46,290 --> 02:01:49,470 want to thank every one of them. Then they did a slow roll of the 2018 02:01:49,470 --> 02:01:51,870 credits. Yeah. You know, which is what usually do with the 2019 02:01:51,870 --> 02:01:54,930 shows not long enough. Yes. But in this case, it was like he's 2020 02:01:54,930 --> 02:01:57,660 walks off this thing, you know, and they do this unbelievably 2021 02:01:57,660 --> 02:02:01,020 slow roll of just not only everybody that's on the 2022 02:02:02,580 --> 02:02:05,820 internet, I know they don't have a cameraman working the show. 2023 02:02:05,940 --> 02:02:09,540 Well, it's not on that particular night. But no, but 2024 02:02:09,540 --> 02:02:09,720 that's 2025 02:02:09,720 --> 02:02:12,120 the point where they were they did a slow roll. But Jeff 2026 02:02:12,120 --> 02:02:14,640 glorious, I do his last sign off. It's kind of sweet. We 2027 02:02:14,640 --> 02:02:15,600 don't need to play. I want to 2028 02:02:15,600 --> 02:02:17,280 hear it now. No, no, you said it. Okay. 2029 02:02:17,309 --> 02:02:20,309 We leave here tonight. I just want to say thanks. 2030 02:02:20,760 --> 02:02:23,670 How long was he in this job? A year 2031 02:02:24,059 --> 02:02:27,869 to year? Yeah, he took over from Pelle. It first it was Anthony 2032 02:02:27,869 --> 02:02:32,459 Mason took over from Pelion and they kicked him to the field 2033 02:02:32,459 --> 02:02:35,129 and, and they brought glory and it's I thought, well, I don't 2034 02:02:35,129 --> 02:02:39,749 like the way. But again, I like glory, because he's got a very 2035 02:02:39,749 --> 02:02:43,349 nice, he's got an extremely pleasant professional voice. 2036 02:02:43,499 --> 02:02:48,299 He's not a flubber. And he and he seems objective and like 2037 02:02:48,299 --> 02:02:51,209 pelle, who is a Trump hater. And so what are they going to do? 2038 02:02:51,209 --> 02:02:53,759 They're going to get rid of glore and they're bringing in 2039 02:02:53,789 --> 02:02:58,409 the Trump hater, Norah O'Donnell. Yes. From the morning 2040 02:02:58,409 --> 02:03:01,619 show. And she she's gonna be she's a flubber. She's not going 2041 02:03:01,619 --> 02:03:03,959 to be able to sit down and seriously read the news. What 2042 02:03:03,959 --> 02:03:05,009 are they thinking? By 2043 02:03:05,010 --> 02:03:08,430 the way, according to the Muller report, ever since you got 2044 02:03:08,430 --> 02:03:12,030 canned from PC Magazine, you become a Trump supporter. 2045 02:03:14,220 --> 02:03:17,310 Yeah, I didn't see that in there. So that's bullcrap. Well, 2046 02:03:17,310 --> 02:03:17,700 someone 2047 02:03:17,700 --> 02:03:19,530 said so on Twitter, so it must be true. 2048 02:03:20,160 --> 02:03:23,490 So let's hear anyway. So here is 2049 02:03:23,490 --> 02:03:25,320 goodbye. Let's hear glorious Goodbye. Oh, yeah. 2050 02:03:25,440 --> 02:03:29,310 As we leave here tonight, I just want to say thanks. This is a 2051 02:03:29,310 --> 02:03:32,460 short broadcast, but a long game. Through it all the people 2052 02:03:32,460 --> 02:03:36,180 who put on the evening news remain committed. This program 2053 02:03:36,180 --> 02:03:39,630 will be moving to Washington DC in the coming months. I wish 2054 02:03:39,630 --> 02:03:43,890 Nora O'Donnell the best of luck, but she won't eat it all. 2055 02:03:45,330 --> 02:03:49,770 I heard it. I heard. I wish her the best of luck. Wish Nora 2056 02:03:49,770 --> 02:03:53,760 O'Donnell the best of luck. She won't need it because of all the 2057 02:03:53,760 --> 02:03:57,360 people backing her up. So I'd like to use the time I have left 2058 02:03:57,390 --> 02:04:01,230 on this night to recognize them. Their hours are long and 2059 02:04:01,230 --> 02:04:04,140 unpredictable. Their family and friends are unfailingly 2060 02:04:04,170 --> 02:04:04,830 patients. 2061 02:04:05,190 --> 02:04:11,460 No, no. Thanking the crew. Yeah, it's an old one. They still it 2062 02:04:11,460 --> 02:04:13,920 works a team effort. I think 2063 02:04:14,070 --> 02:04:17,160 I think my crew going on and on about these four these guys 2064 02:04:17,160 --> 02:04:18,210 screwed me over. 2065 02:04:18,270 --> 02:04:22,140 So let's so what do we know what happened Norah O'Donnell 2066 02:04:22,140 --> 02:04:24,750 to take my place? Are you kidding me? That's what he 2067 02:04:24,750 --> 02:04:25,260 should have said. 2068 02:04:25,320 --> 02:04:27,360 I bet she tests really well though. 2069 02:04:28,560 --> 02:04:31,980 We'll wait until she starts doing now. I mean, this is like 2070 02:04:33,180 --> 02:04:35,640 Who was that they brought in that woman? I think it was also 2071 02:04:35,640 --> 02:04:39,480 brought into CBS that the morning woman from the Today 2072 02:04:39,480 --> 02:04:44,490 Show was I can't remember her name. She was terrible. You know 2073 02:04:44,490 --> 02:04:48,150 just because you're it's nice to have a woman anchor but it's you 2074 02:04:48,150 --> 02:04:52,020 can't do it. I mean, the the epitome of female anchors on 2075 02:04:52,020 --> 02:04:54,540 news reading is Asian Goodman. 2076 02:04:54,570 --> 02:04:57,660 What happened to Connie, Connie Chung 2077 02:04:59,400 --> 02:05:02,400 whatever how Connie Chung I think she married more Maury 2078 02:05:02,400 --> 02:05:06,390 Povich than she did Marian but she was great actually pretty 2079 02:05:06,390 --> 02:05:06,930 good. Yeah. 2080 02:05:07,380 --> 02:05:10,590 She was your stereotypical, she was your stereotypical Asian 2081 02:05:10,590 --> 02:05:12,690 woman news model. 2082 02:05:14,009 --> 02:05:17,669 I will say this they had and I don't want to sound like a 2083 02:05:17,669 --> 02:05:23,159 racist. By but the Asian newsreaders I've seen it once it 2084 02:05:23,159 --> 02:05:25,199 comes out good. We have a lot of in the Bay Area they come in. 2085 02:05:26,009 --> 02:05:31,379 There was one woman here, you would just sit and waiting. I 2086 02:05:31,379 --> 02:05:35,579 mean, I don't care who you are and how good you are. You can't 2087 02:05:35,579 --> 02:05:40,889 go weeks after weeks after weeks of daily news reading with never 2088 02:05:41,009 --> 02:05:47,579 never making a flub saying something. There was this woman 2089 02:05:47,579 --> 02:05:50,879 I can't remember her name, but she was screamed through the 2090 02:05:50,879 --> 02:05:56,219 news and she would be flawless. And I think and well maybe the 2091 02:05:56,219 --> 02:05:59,249 Asian some Asian newsreaders are just they just have a skill set 2092 02:05:59,249 --> 02:06:03,149 that you can't otherwise achieve. And so Connie Chung, I 2093 02:06:03,149 --> 02:06:06,869 think was in that league. Norah O'Donnell will not pull this 2094 02:06:06,869 --> 02:06:11,579 off. She won't pull it off you watch. 2095 02:06:11,610 --> 02:06:14,310 That wasn't racist at all. By the way. I understand what you 2096 02:06:14,310 --> 02:06:15,120 were worried about. 2097 02:06:15,420 --> 02:06:17,490 I'm always worried because you keep calling me out on it 2098 02:06:17,490 --> 02:06:19,560 thought you're misogynist as all hell but 2099 02:06:19,950 --> 02:06:24,030 okay, let's so anyway, so Okay, back to Iran. The reason why we 2100 02:06:24,030 --> 02:06:27,930 think that it's ripe for a false flag is a I mean, come on. It's 2101 02:06:27,930 --> 02:06:34,500 what they do. It's fun. Be we had pence specifically tell a 2102 02:06:34,500 --> 02:06:38,400 group of Iranians behind closed doors, which are not pence, 2103 02:06:38,430 --> 02:06:42,540 Pompeo CIF State State Department, former CIA will get 2104 02:06:42,540 --> 02:06:46,260 it eventually, specifically told them which means you know, it 2105 02:06:46,260 --> 02:06:49,410 had to leak out. We're just hold them back. We're not doing 2106 02:06:49,410 --> 02:06:51,990 anything, no aggressive moves from us. It's not going to be 2107 02:06:51,990 --> 02:06:54,180 us. Whatever you mean, see what happened. It won't be as we're 2108 02:06:54,180 --> 02:06:57,270 not doing anything. So that means, of course, that there's 2109 02:06:57,270 --> 02:06:58,200 something afoot. 2110 02:06:58,590 --> 02:07:02,160 And meanwhile, they take the Abraham Lincoln in about 2111 02:07:02,190 --> 02:07:06,630 800,000 10,000 sailors, sailors and 2112 02:07:06,630 --> 02:07:09,810 abroad and they sent him right in Oh, this is this is and 2113 02:07:09,810 --> 02:07:11,640 nobody's saying this is? 2114 02:07:12,360 --> 02:07:15,480 Yes. Tulsi Gabbard. Tulsi Gabbard is all over it. Haven't 2115 02:07:15,480 --> 02:07:19,230 you heard? It? I haven't heard that. But here's the report from 2116 02:07:19,230 --> 02:07:20,400 CBS with Iran's 2117 02:07:20,430 --> 02:07:23,790 Revolutionary Guard today ruled out any talks with the US aimed 2118 02:07:23,790 --> 02:07:26,820 at getting Tehran to give up its nuclear program. This is 2119 02:07:26,820 --> 02:07:30,300 tensions grew with a new show of force in the region. Here's 2120 02:07:30,300 --> 02:07:30,990 David Martin. 2121 02:07:31,890 --> 02:07:34,830 A carrier strike group has already passed through the Suez 2122 02:07:34,830 --> 02:07:38,580 Canal and B 52. Bombers already landed at an airbase in the 2123 02:07:38,580 --> 02:07:42,750 Persian Gulf. But the Pentagon is sending even more forces to 2124 02:07:42,750 --> 02:07:47,100 backup its warnings to Iran, Patriot air defense missiles and 2125 02:07:47,100 --> 02:07:51,180 amphibious assault ship, a nuclear powered submarine, along 2126 02:07:51,180 --> 02:07:55,110 with fresh supplies of precision guided weapons are all on their 2127 02:07:55,110 --> 02:07:59,070 way. In response to intelligence reports Iran is preparing to 2128 02:07:59,070 --> 02:08:03,180 attack American troops or diplomats. Secretary of State 2129 02:08:03,180 --> 02:08:06,690 Pompeo has warned any attacks will be answered with a swift 2130 02:08:06,900 --> 02:08:11,430 and decisive US response. In an interview with Margaret Brennan 2131 02:08:11,430 --> 02:08:14,850 for Face the Nation. former Defense Secretary Robert Gates 2132 02:08:14,850 --> 02:08:18,900 said he's worried the stage is being set for a conflict neither 2133 02:08:18,900 --> 02:08:23,310 side wants. Now if the Iranians make the mistake of launching a 2134 02:08:23,310 --> 02:08:26,820 attack in the Persian Gulf on a more American warship. The 2135 02:08:26,820 --> 02:08:29,340 administration probably won't have any alternative but to 2136 02:08:29,340 --> 02:08:33,210 retaliate is scarier. Lincoln was first passed by Yemen where 2137 02:08:33,210 --> 02:08:36,690 Iranian backed rebels have in the past fired missiles at 2138 02:08:36,690 --> 02:08:40,200 American ships. And once it arrives at the entrance to the 2139 02:08:40,200 --> 02:08:43,530 Persian Gulf, it will be operating under the noses of 2140 02:08:43,530 --> 02:08:48,420 Iran's hardline Revolutionary Guard units. David Martin, CBS 2141 02:08:48,420 --> 02:08:49,410 News, the Pentagon. 2142 02:08:50,040 --> 02:08:55,860 You know, I really hope Trump has a handle on what's going on 2143 02:08:55,860 --> 02:09:01,980 here. Because all these things can just collapse so poorly and 2144 02:09:02,010 --> 02:09:05,910 really fainted they're ratcheting up the Syrian thing 2145 02:09:05,910 --> 02:09:08,490 again. Oh, Assad is bomb at him and clip it. It was so 2146 02:09:08,490 --> 02:09:12,180 insulting. Assad is bombing hospitals again killing children 2147 02:09:12,180 --> 02:09:16,890 and patients hospitals. The war machine is huge. 2148 02:09:17,880 --> 02:09:21,600 Well, this particular situation is so obvious we're shipping all 2149 02:09:21,600 --> 02:09:24,900 these armaments 10,000 2150 02:09:24,900 --> 02:09:27,570 to 10,000 sailors alone. 2151 02:09:27,660 --> 02:09:30,840 Yeah. And what is the here's the one thing that is ever discussed 2152 02:09:30,840 --> 02:09:34,980 by any of these news operations. Because you could if your work 2153 02:09:35,040 --> 02:09:38,370 working in DC, you could ask somebody you can go to you had 2154 02:09:38,370 --> 02:09:43,620 the Pentagon briefings. The question is, what does it cost 2155 02:09:44,280 --> 02:09:49,860 to move the the Abraham Lincoln and all of the new gear and fly 2156 02:09:49,860 --> 02:09:53,370 the B 50 twos and take all those ships and move them into the 2157 02:09:53,760 --> 02:09:59,550 into the region right next to Iran? What does it cost? Well, 2158 02:09:59,550 --> 02:10:03,090 how much does It cost to move all this gear over there in the 2159 02:10:03,090 --> 02:10:06,570 first place. It's gotta cause I gotta cross. 2160 02:10:06,690 --> 02:10:10,350 I'm pretty sure. I pretty sure we can find the answer in the 2161 02:10:10,350 --> 02:10:16,560 Muller report. SpaceForce that's what it is. Everyone's your meet 2162 02:10:16,560 --> 02:10:20,820 the so called media is so bad. It's hard enough. Even if you 2163 02:10:20,820 --> 02:10:23,640 put something in a headline in the New York Times, most people 2164 02:10:23,640 --> 02:10:27,510 won't really know about it. It's got to be headline news for days 2165 02:10:27,510 --> 02:10:30,660 and days and days. It's got to be hammered. But there's too 2166 02:10:30,660 --> 02:10:33,840 much media too much noise people tune it out. They got other 2167 02:10:33,840 --> 02:10:37,590 things to do. They don't care. So the machine is very good at 2168 02:10:37,590 --> 02:10:40,800 the repetition because that's what works. It's how do you why 2169 02:10:40,800 --> 02:10:43,800 do you see the same damn Princess toast commercial for 2170 02:10:43,800 --> 02:10:49,260 the stupid vitamin C gummy bear for your moronic kids. And I 2171 02:10:49,260 --> 02:10:52,500 don't have kids and I keep seeing this ad. I have one but 2172 02:10:52,530 --> 02:10:55,260 not to need to the gummy bears. It's because it works and you 2173 02:10:55,260 --> 02:10:58,770 remember it. But they're not. All they're doing is Mala Mala. 2174 02:10:58,770 --> 02:11:01,680 Mala bar trump the mala Mala Mala bar, trumpet, Mala, Mala 2175 02:11:01,680 --> 02:11:07,920 Mala ba Trump did nothing. Not informing the American people 2176 02:11:08,100 --> 02:11:10,710 that I'm sure it's not much better anywhere else. 2177 02:11:10,889 --> 02:11:13,649 No, it's well, you know, it's not. Let's go here's this. 2178 02:11:13,679 --> 02:11:18,899 Here's an interesting one. Yeah, sorry. Yes. Is this story that 2179 02:11:18,929 --> 02:11:21,389 should take our break? We can't unless it's related. We should 2180 02:11:21,389 --> 02:11:23,579 we should do a break here.

Thank you. 2432 02:28:08,640 --> 02:28:14,790 The vortech.org/na all help is welcome and necessary. So I 2433 02:28:14,940 --> 02:28:20,580 know I've been note, Producer Grant about this dimension of 2434 02:28:20,580 --> 02:28:23,280 the of the diesel subs, which was 2435 02:28:23,370 --> 02:28:26,670 we were talking about them if it was an antiquated thing or why 2436 02:28:26,700 --> 02:28:27,510 we were laughing 2437 02:28:27,540 --> 02:28:31,260 about it they made the point of saying it well this guy here 2438 02:28:31,260 --> 02:28:34,500 just a couple of people actually. Yeah, diesel subs are 2439 02:28:34,500 --> 02:28:39,780 exceedingly quiet compared to nuclear boats. A nuclear vessels 2440 02:28:39,780 --> 02:28:44,520 need to maintain their coolant pumps even when lying silent. 2441 02:28:45,120 --> 02:28:48,600 This means they always create some level of noise that can be 2442 02:28:48,600 --> 02:28:52,710 detected by passively listening. Diesel subs run on batteries, 2443 02:28:52,710 --> 02:28:55,920 meaning that they can be completely silent while moving 2444 02:28:55,920 --> 02:28:59,940 at low speed and cannot be detected unless they move 2445 02:29:00,390 --> 02:29:04,500 quickly or which causes cavitation this means the sub 2446 02:29:04,500 --> 02:29:07,080 can move into a shooting position without the enemy 2447 02:29:07,080 --> 02:29:11,460 detecting them. While running like this. Their opponent must 2448 02:29:11,460 --> 02:29:16,200 use active sonar sonar dipping them active sonar gives away the 2449 02:29:16,620 --> 02:29:21,270 pickets ships exact position and is likely to invoke a torpedo 2450 02:29:21,270 --> 02:29:25,050 launch at the surface ship doing the pinging. This is why they 2451 02:29:25,050 --> 02:29:29,730 are very dangerous. Okay diesel subs weakness is that they need 2452 02:29:29,730 --> 02:29:33,180 to charge their batteries using their loud diesel engines, 2453 02:29:33,450 --> 02:29:37,290 either while on the surface or just beneath it while using a 2454 02:29:37,290 --> 02:29:41,130 snorkel. They are very vulnerable while doing this 2455 02:29:42,690 --> 02:29:44,340 little background for people don't 2456 02:29:44,340 --> 02:29:50,250 know the more you know. On the no agenda show, Alyssa Milano. 2457 02:29:51,270 --> 02:29:53,790 She's pretty powerful in Hollywood due to her. I think 2458 02:29:53,790 --> 02:30:01,710 her husband who is a big CIA agent I think she He is using an 2459 02:30:01,710 --> 02:30:05,910 oldie but goodie, the old Lysistrata trick calling for a 2460 02:30:05,910 --> 02:30:11,790 sec strike to protest anti abortion laws. In other words, 2461 02:30:12,690 --> 02:30:16,650 you see, I think she has a list slogan or logo. It's a big pink 2462 02:30:16,650 --> 02:30:24,750 sign with a big X. And is it oh, here it is. Hashtag sex strike. 2463 02:30:25,710 --> 02:30:28,710 Our reproductive rights are being erased until women have 2464 02:30:28,710 --> 02:30:31,590 legal control over our own bodies. We just cannot risk 2465 02:30:31,590 --> 02:30:37,380 pregnancy join me by not having sex until we get bodily autonomy 2466 02:30:37,380 --> 02:30:44,220 back. That's a bumper sticker. Huh, this is horrible. 2467 02:30:44,580 --> 02:30:49,380 Well, right now is in the South Georgia of course plus. The 2468 02:30:49,380 --> 02:30:52,380 heartbeat bill. The heart duct which is dubious is 2469 02:30:52,380 --> 02:30:53,070 questionable. 2470 02:30:53,699 --> 02:30:57,929 dubious. It's completely I think it's is yes. Very lame. 2471 02:30:57,960 --> 02:31:00,810 Whoo. So so the ball the Hollywood lot of Hollywood 2472 02:31:00,840 --> 02:31:06,660 movies are made in 1 million square feet of soundstage in 2473 02:31:06,660 --> 02:31:10,410 Georgia. Yes, perfect, huge. They have a lot of sound stages, 2474 02:31:10,410 --> 02:31:13,350 and they got a lot of action to get they got and the workers are 2475 02:31:13,350 --> 02:31:16,680 cheaper, you know. So yeah, so that I can make movies there. 2476 02:31:16,680 --> 02:31:19,890 And now I think Spielberg and some other guys that are that 2477 02:31:19,890 --> 02:31:23,130 are kind of signed up to do movies there said, Well, they're 2478 02:31:23,130 --> 02:31:25,290 gonna take their profits from these movies and give them to 2479 02:31:25,290 --> 02:31:28,230 some rights organizations. They're not actually pulling out 2480 02:31:28,230 --> 02:31:31,890 completely as some others claim. But the super action is in 2481 02:31:31,950 --> 02:31:35,910 Alabama, where they're just going to make abortions illegal, 2482 02:31:35,910 --> 02:31:38,910 and this is supposed to be the lead into the eventual 2483 02:31:39,300 --> 02:31:42,360 supposedly I don't know what's really going on there. But I 2484 02:31:42,360 --> 02:31:43,140 have a clip. 2485 02:31:43,710 --> 02:31:47,430 You have a clip. Okay, because I have a question questions about 2486 02:31:47,430 --> 02:31:48,840 this. Let's listen to the clip. First 2487 02:31:48,870 --> 02:31:51,900 Alabama State Senate delay to vote Thursday on a law that 2488 02:31:51,900 --> 02:31:54,870 would ban virtually all abortions after a rancorous 2489 02:31:54,870 --> 02:31:59,070 floor debate that saw lawmakers repeatedly shout in protest. The 2490 02:31:59,070 --> 02:32:01,980 bill would make providing an abortion a Class A felony 2491 02:32:01,980 --> 02:32:05,940 punishable by up to 99 years in prison. In Alabama Senate 2492 02:32:05,940 --> 02:32:08,880 Minority Leader Bobby singleton objected after Republican 2493 02:32:08,880 --> 02:32:11,700 leaders sought to remove amendments from the abortion ban 2494 02:32:11,850 --> 02:32:14,490 that would have allowed exemptions in cases of rape or 2495 02:32:14,520 --> 02:32:15,540 incest. She 2496 02:32:15,540 --> 02:32:19,500 didn't even make a motion Mr. President, make a motion he made 2497 02:32:19,500 --> 02:32:24,180 a motion to table the motion. No motion for he made a motion to 2498 02:32:24,180 --> 02:32:29,010 sink in and other Democrats also protested when Republican 2499 02:32:29,010 --> 02:32:32,370 leaders attempted to pass amendments on a voice vote. They 2500 02:32:32,370 --> 02:32:36,540 demanded a roll call so that lawmakers votes would be put on 2501 02:32:36,540 --> 02:32:39,360 the record. This is Andrea Miller, president of the 2502 02:32:39,360 --> 02:32:41,790 National Institute of reproductive health. 2503 02:32:42,270 --> 02:32:44,670 I mean, the reality is what happened in the Alabama Senate 2504 02:32:44,670 --> 02:32:48,420 just shows how high the stakes are right now, when a state is 2505 02:32:48,420 --> 02:32:52,980 planning to ban all abortions outright, and not only eliminate 2506 02:32:52,980 --> 02:32:56,370 access to abortion care for the people in their state, but in an 2507 02:32:56,370 --> 02:32:59,010 effort to eliminate it for everyone all across the country 2508 02:32:59,040 --> 02:33:01,470 because they hope they'll be the ones to bring the case to the 2509 02:33:01,470 --> 02:33:05,160 Supreme Court that will overturn or severely eviscerate Roe 2510 02:33:05,160 --> 02:33:05,850 versus Wade. 2511 02:33:06,870 --> 02:33:10,020 Yeah, I think they're a long way from doing that with these, 2512 02:33:10,080 --> 02:33:13,620 although it's law, it's law, this heartbeat bill, which I 2513 02:33:13,620 --> 02:33:16,980 read through because I'm very interested in the topic. And you 2514 02:33:16,980 --> 02:33:21,180 know, it completely flies in the, in the face of the privacy 2515 02:33:21,210 --> 02:33:26,100 of Roe versus Wade. So I don't think that in actuality it will 2516 02:33:26,100 --> 02:33:30,690 do much but yeah, what eventually happens is the access 2517 02:33:30,690 --> 02:33:33,030 and you have to go out of state and that's definitely a problem. 2518 02:33:34,410 --> 02:33:38,730 I know by you, I'm pro killing people. I think it just to be 2519 02:33:38,730 --> 02:33:41,490 televised, that's that's the only beef I have about it. I 2520 02:33:41,490 --> 02:33:44,220 think you put people on death row, we kill them play great, 2521 02:33:44,250 --> 02:33:47,730 you got to televise it, this should be the same. But I'm 2522 02:33:47,730 --> 02:33:55,350 confused about the numbers. We have birth control as it's very 2523 02:33:55,350 --> 02:33:59,040 effective 100. And it's 99.9% effective, multiple different 2524 02:33:59,040 --> 02:34:05,130 kinds of ways. It's mainly regional 99% for women deal with 2525 02:34:05,130 --> 02:34:10,710 the problem after all, it's their body. I don't understand 2526 02:34:10,740 --> 02:34:13,710 this, these high numbers about five because I looked it up I 2527 02:34:13,710 --> 02:34:19,470 was over the weekend, about 5% of all women per year have an 2528 02:34:19,470 --> 02:34:24,840 unwanted pregnancy. 40% of those are African American who 2529 02:34:24,840 --> 02:34:29,220 represent 6% of the population. So that's very high. My question 2530 02:34:29,220 --> 02:34:33,600 is why? And it's not really answered. I know there's some 2531 02:34:33,630 --> 02:34:39,960 NIH studies but why do people become pregnant when they don't 2532 02:34:39,960 --> 02:34:42,450 want to? And I don't even know how to formulate the question. 2533 02:34:42,480 --> 02:34:46,260 It's an unknown I think they call it unintended pregnancy as 2534 02:34:46,260 --> 02:34:49,080 an unintended didn't want to get pregnant didn't want to have the 2535 02:34:49,080 --> 02:34:54,150 baby. So is is access to contraception. too 2536 02:34:54,150 --> 02:34:58,980 controversial, not available, too expensive. Why? Why is why 2537 02:34:58,980 --> 02:35:05,970 is this option B? unchosen with a reasonably high frequency. I 2538 02:35:05,970 --> 02:35:08,310 don't know the only answer I need? Well, the only answer I 2539 02:35:08,310 --> 02:35:14,580 get from the NIH is education, that the less educated you are. 2540 02:35:15,720 --> 02:35:19,080 And the less and the poorer you are, the more chance that you're 2541 02:35:19,080 --> 02:35:22,920 going to have an unintended pregnancy. I still just don't, 2542 02:35:23,250 --> 02:35:26,370 it means that that means that again, education just needs to 2543 02:35:26,370 --> 02:35:30,300 be be better, or are there other reasons I'm just looking for 2544 02:35:30,330 --> 02:35:33,030 it's high, I find this number high. And we have so many 2545 02:35:33,210 --> 02:35:39,210 different ways to stop the unwanted pregnancy up front. No 2546 02:35:39,210 --> 02:35:42,270 one No one has this talk. You know, it's all about the baby 2547 02:35:42,270 --> 02:35:45,570 killing part and the choice or life or whatever. But what is 2548 02:35:45,570 --> 02:35:51,210 the root? Cause? You don't know, either. I guess. I don't 2549 02:35:51,210 --> 02:35:54,360 have a clue. Yeah. But except for the simple education or 2550 02:35:54,360 --> 02:35:56,850 people don't care. They're careless. There's a lot of 2551 02:35:56,850 --> 02:36:00,600 carelessness, or there's just a pad the heat of the moment. And 2552 02:36:00,930 --> 02:36:03,660 who knows, I mean, it's just I don't know, I my mind at the 2553 02:36:03,660 --> 02:36:05,400 group that's involved with this. 2554 02:36:05,849 --> 02:36:09,119 I mean, the only thing that I can think about after and I 2555 02:36:09,119 --> 02:36:11,609 really have put that it's in the show notes it put some study 2556 02:36:11,609 --> 02:36:15,629 into it of unintended pregnancies, and to have one 2557 02:36:15,659 --> 02:36:18,719 very surveyed a lot. But the answer is all they say as well. 2558 02:36:18,899 --> 02:36:22,589 Here are the groups who have it more often. But is it possible 2559 02:36:22,799 --> 02:36:26,129 that we're so shattered certainly the African American 2560 02:36:27,329 --> 02:36:32,879 African Americans who historically, really ever since 2561 02:36:32,879 --> 02:36:36,809 the welfare state came into being the real welfare of our 2562 02:36:36,809 --> 02:36:42,509 fatherless families, I have this fear that there are a lot of 2563 02:36:42,929 --> 02:36:47,579 black women who feel like okay, I'm gonna have a child with this 2564 02:36:47,579 --> 02:36:50,129 guy, my baby daddy, you know, you hear them all tell my baby 2565 02:36:50,129 --> 02:36:53,129 daddy, it's this whole cultural thing. And it's not just black, 2566 02:36:53,129 --> 02:36:57,299 but this is where we're hearing it. The baby daddy, and maybe 2567 02:36:57,299 --> 02:37:00,599 he'll stay with me. And it's almost used like a, like a, like 2568 02:37:00,599 --> 02:37:05,819 a, like a bond between a wishful bond and then it doesn't happen. 2569 02:37:05,819 --> 02:37:08,009 The baby daddy leaves like I'm not wanting to get rid of the 2570 02:37:08,009 --> 02:37:11,759 kid. That's it feels like that may be some of it. And it can be 2571 02:37:11,759 --> 02:37:14,759 black or white. But it just the numbers say African American 2572 02:37:15,089 --> 02:37:19,139 women 40% of all abortions, and this now we're just looking at 2573 02:37:19,139 --> 02:37:23,909 the unintended ones. unintended pregnancies. I don't know. This 2574 02:37:23,909 --> 02:37:26,099 is the stuff I'd like to understand. Maybe I'm sure we 2575 02:37:26,099 --> 02:37:29,909 have people in producers who could not be discussed, will 2576 02:37:29,909 --> 02:37:32,879 know but we can discuss it if our producers point us in the 2577 02:37:32,879 --> 02:37:33,749 right direction. Read 2578 02:37:33,750 --> 02:37:36,150 some producers notes, but we have no nothing real 2579 02:37:36,150 --> 02:37:37,380 information. Absolutely 2580 02:37:37,380 --> 02:37:42,840 nothing. But yeah, other than everyone just going apeshit over 2581 02:37:42,840 --> 02:37:46,320 this. They said nothing about it in the Muller report. 2582 02:37:46,890 --> 02:37:52,410 No, I didn't see anything about it in the Muller report. Another 2583 02:37:52,410 --> 02:37:54,840 way I got another news story that we didn't get any we have 2584 02:37:54,840 --> 02:37:57,840 no information, but this hasn't been covered by anybody who's 2585 02:37:57,840 --> 02:38:00,030 our new defense secretary. Do you know what's his name? 2586 02:38:00,150 --> 02:38:05,310 Yeah, isn't it the junior guy who came in the undersecretary 2587 02:38:05,310 --> 02:38:05,670 guy? 2588 02:38:06,540 --> 02:38:10,890 I think it might be. What's nice to know, you know, this is an 2589 02:38:10,890 --> 02:38:11,910 important job. What's 2590 02:38:11,910 --> 02:38:14,220 the clip? Oh, yeah. New defense secretary, 2591 02:38:14,369 --> 02:38:17,219 President Trump's nominated Patrick Shanahan to become the 2592 02:38:17,219 --> 02:38:20,279 next Secretary of Defense Shanahan has been acting 2593 02:38:20,279 --> 02:38:24,209 Pentagon chief since Trump fired James Mattis at the start of the 2594 02:38:24,209 --> 02:38:27,269 year last month and internal Pentagon ethics investigation 2595 02:38:27,269 --> 02:38:30,959 cleared Shanahan following accusations he unfairly favored 2596 02:38:30,959 --> 02:38:34,349 the weapons contractor Boeing where he spent over three 2597 02:38:34,349 --> 02:38:38,849 decades as an executive. Yes, I, 2598 02:38:39,300 --> 02:38:41,670 I think we talked about we talked about him because he was 2599 02:38:41,670 --> 02:38:46,320 the Boeing guy that we discussed this, I have two clips to two 2600 02:38:46,320 --> 02:38:52,800 media related clips. The first one is it's only the intro to an 2601 02:38:52,800 --> 02:38:55,740 interview with Matt Taibbi. Matt Taibbi, I like a lot as a 2602 02:38:55,740 --> 02:38:57,690 journalist, he writes for Rolling Stone or wrote for 2603 02:38:57,690 --> 02:39:01,950 Rolling Stone and then I think he moved to the intercept. And 2604 02:39:01,950 --> 02:39:04,710 he's still but then he left the intercept and he left the 2605 02:39:04,710 --> 02:39:05,580 intercept mass right. He 2606 02:39:05,580 --> 02:39:08,880 went back anyway because he found him to be poor. He had a 2607 02:39:08,880 --> 02:39:11,790 phone conversation with him and I he I asked him about the 2608 02:39:11,790 --> 02:39:13,830 intercept thing, and he just thought it was just a 2609 02:39:14,070 --> 02:39:15,060 disorganized. 2610 02:39:15,180 --> 02:39:17,970 Well, maybe it was at the time. It seems to be a lot better now. 2611 02:39:18,510 --> 02:39:19,230 You don't know. 2612 02:39:20,010 --> 02:39:21,960 Now you don't. Anyway, he has a book 2613 02:39:21,960 --> 02:39:26,070 called Have you seen a bee recently? He doesn't shave the 2614 02:39:26,070 --> 02:39:29,250 head with unfortunately is not shaved. 2615 02:39:30,240 --> 02:39:33,420 He's looking a little scraggly is scraggly. Yeah, this word 2616 02:39:33,450 --> 02:39:37,110 There's a book out called hate ink. I have not read it yet. But 2617 02:39:37,110 --> 02:39:41,430 he went on to the only place you can can get on that is news 2618 02:39:41,430 --> 02:39:44,760 related. Is On Russia today. He 2619 02:39:44,760 --> 02:39:46,350 can't Yeah, with Chris Hedges. 2620 02:39:46,470 --> 02:39:50,160 He can't get on anything else. And I just wanted to play only 2621 02:39:50,160 --> 02:39:53,580 the intro that Chris Hedges did before the interview because it 2622 02:39:53,580 --> 02:39:56,670 kind of neatly sums up what's in the book and I think it's going 2623 02:39:56,670 --> 02:39:57,690 to be an interesting read. 2624 02:39:57,720 --> 02:40:00,600 Welcome back to part two of our discussion of the day case that 2625 02:40:00,600 --> 02:40:03,870 has beset American journalism with Matt Taibbi, the author of 2626 02:40:03,870 --> 02:40:07,890 hate, Incorporated how and why the media makes us hate one 2627 02:40:07,890 --> 02:40:11,100 another. Last week we discussed the shattering of the old forms 2628 02:40:11,100 --> 02:40:15,210 of media manipulation and the rise of a new media landscape 2629 02:40:15,210 --> 02:40:19,830 built around demographic silos that sell internecine conflict. 2630 02:40:19,980 --> 02:40:23,760 The result tie the points out is a bifurcated public that is 2631 02:40:23,760 --> 02:40:27,660 addicted to hating each other. This new media landscape still 2632 02:40:27,690 --> 02:40:32,370 manufactures consent, but by setting group against group, a 2633 02:40:32,370 --> 02:40:36,690 consumer version of what George Orwell in 1984, called the two 2634 02:40:36,690 --> 02:40:40,590 minutes of hate. Our opinions and prejudices are skillfully 2635 02:40:40,590 --> 02:40:45,210 catered to and reinforced. Aided by a detailed digital analysis 2636 02:40:45,330 --> 02:40:49,740 of our proclivities and habits and sold back to us. It is 2637 02:40:49,740 --> 02:40:54,240 Tybee, writes packaged anger just for you. The result is 2638 02:40:54,240 --> 02:40:59,130 political impotence, a fractured and disempowered public crippled 2639 02:40:59,130 --> 02:41:03,210 by hate and fear and mesmerized by the fake dissent of the 2640 02:41:03,210 --> 02:41:07,110 culture wars and conspiracy theories rather than genuine 2641 02:41:07,110 --> 02:41:11,580 dissent. The moral swamp is fertile soil for demagogues, 2642 02:41:11,610 --> 02:41:16,170 such as Donald Trump, who is a creation of this media burlesque 2643 02:41:16,290 --> 02:41:20,280 and feeds our emerging corporate totalitarianism 2644 02:41:20,610 --> 02:41:23,820 and that's why you should not only listen to but also support 2645 02:41:23,820 --> 02:41:27,570 the no agenda show because that's exactly what's out there. 2646 02:41:27,630 --> 02:41:29,430 You don't even have to listen to the interview. 2647 02:41:29,850 --> 02:41:34,140 That piece itself was was very slanted Of course it was. That's 2648 02:41:34,140 --> 02:41:36,870 what makes it great. This is a known as socialist 2649 02:41:37,260 --> 02:41:40,530 congratulate, he should be at Starbucks tweeting from his 2650 02:41:40,530 --> 02:41:41,250 MacBook. 2651 02:41:43,740 --> 02:41:47,910 So we have the trade war going on. Another another interesting 2652 02:41:47,910 --> 02:41:51,510 little tidbit was on Democracy Now which I'd never heard 2653 02:41:51,510 --> 02:41:55,320 anyplace else, which is the French the French are having, 2654 02:41:55,320 --> 02:41:57,180 you know, besides having their yellow vests which 2655 02:41:57,180 --> 02:42:02,400 are still ongoing and six months now 26 weeks is the 26th 2656 02:42:02,400 --> 02:42:03,720 weekend. It's still going 2657 02:42:04,050 --> 02:42:07,470 now they got a GM in protest going on in France 2658 02:42:07,500 --> 02:42:09,930 in northern France, human rights activists are attempting to 2659 02:42:09,930 --> 02:42:12,960 block authorities from loading French weapons onto a Saudi 2660 02:42:12,960 --> 02:42:16,170 vessel, saying the shipment would be used to kill civilians 2661 02:42:16,170 --> 02:42:18,540 in Yemen in violation of an international arms. 2662 02:42:19,140 --> 02:42:21,150 We were the holes in that deal treaty. 2663 02:42:21,449 --> 02:42:25,559 About 100 protesters turned out Thursday at the port of lab 2664 02:42:25,799 --> 02:42:29,189 ahead of the arrival of the Saudi ship as lawyers for two 2665 02:42:29,189 --> 02:42:32,039 separate human rights groups sued to prevent the shipment. 2666 02:42:32,249 --> 02:42:36,059 The protests came after a French news site reported French may 2667 02:42:36,059 --> 02:42:39,839 tanks and laser guided missile systems were being used by the 2668 02:42:39,839 --> 02:42:43,319 Saudi led coalition against civilians in Yemen's war. This 2669 02:42:43,319 --> 02:42:46,919 is John Paul Cook, a member of the French National Assembly who 2670 02:42:46,919 --> 02:42:48,479 joined Thursday's protests 2671 02:42:48,480 --> 02:42:51,720 on public again. Well, you men it's the war in Yemen is a 2672 02:42:51,720 --> 02:42:54,870 difficult war, we are turned into supporters of Saudi Arabia 2673 02:42:54,870 --> 02:42:58,080 and if we the French citizens do not act if we don't try to stop 2674 02:42:58,080 --> 02:43:01,620 arm sales, we will end up as accessories to this business. We 2675 02:43:01,620 --> 02:43:03,870 don't want this we don't want to be in the situation. 2676 02:43:04,980 --> 02:43:11,430 I wonder this is the French I give them a lot of props. So how 2677 02:43:11,430 --> 02:43:15,240 am i How was that intertwine? Well actually, let me play my my 2678 02:43:15,240 --> 02:43:18,480 yellow vests clip because this is what I heard was going on, 2679 02:43:18,480 --> 02:43:21,390 but maybe the two are intertwined or half of the 2680 02:43:21,390 --> 02:43:24,060 people went over to the Yemen protests. Heavy 2681 02:43:24,060 --> 02:43:27,810 rain kept the number of yellow vest demonstrators down in Paris 2682 02:43:27,870 --> 02:43:32,250 as the movement marked the 26th consecutive weekend of protests. 2683 02:43:32,550 --> 02:43:36,210 Organizers were hoping to regain the momentum following a record 2684 02:43:36,210 --> 02:43:39,540 low turnout last weekend. The government says fewer than 2685 02:43:39,540 --> 02:43:43,770 19,000 people turned out nationwide. Although organizers 2686 02:43:43,770 --> 02:43:47,370 said this was because of major May Day demonstrations earlier 2687 02:43:47,370 --> 02:43:51,390 in the week appeared to widen this weekend's protests, big 2688 02:43:51,390 --> 02:43:54,420 demonstrations were planned in the regional cities of Leon, 2689 02:43:54,450 --> 02:43:58,740 Nona and Toulouse. More than 5000 people were expected at 2690 02:43:58,770 --> 02:44:02,460 Lille rally core to protest against plans to privatize 2691 02:44:02,460 --> 02:44:06,060 public services. Saturday's rallies come two weeks before 2692 02:44:06,060 --> 02:44:09,960 European Parliament elections when more protests are planned. 2693 02:44:10,020 --> 02:44:13,590 The movement began last November, as a protest over plan 2694 02:44:13,590 --> 02:44:17,700 rises in fuel tax. It grew into a wider campaign of grievances 2695 02:44:17,700 --> 02:44:19,320 against government policies, 2696 02:44:19,500 --> 02:44:23,250 their mind you urine news is not to be trusted. Now notice they 2697 02:44:23,250 --> 02:44:26,760 don't mention what the tax was about, Oh, just a fuel tax. No. 2698 02:44:27,060 --> 02:44:32,220 It was the climate change fuel tax? Yes. So that that no longer 2699 02:44:32,220 --> 02:44:35,970 is nobody wants to talk about it? No, I have a climate change 2700 02:44:35,970 --> 02:44:40,050 thing. But I'm move that over to Thursday. Because it is an 2701 02:44:40,050 --> 02:44:42,270 interesting theory that I was listening to and I think it 2702 02:44:42,630 --> 02:44:45,690 might fit a little bit and help us understand more what's going 2703 02:44:45,690 --> 02:44:49,950 on what can be done and what can't be done. Greta Thornburg 2704 02:44:50,250 --> 02:44:53,400 now tweeting that we really have to start we only really have 2705 02:44:53,400 --> 02:44:54,330 five years. 2706 02:44:55,080 --> 02:44:57,270 Oh, we're gonna be dead in five years because of climate change. 2707 02:44:57,330 --> 02:44:57,780 Now she 2708 02:44:57,780 --> 02:45:01,170 says if we don't have substantial things underway in 2709 02:45:01,170 --> 02:45:03,660 five years, then forget your 10 year mark is not going to 2710 02:45:03,660 --> 02:45:03,870 happen. 2711 02:45:04,230 --> 02:45:07,260 She got a PhD in this what is the deal? She got braids, man. 2712 02:45:10,260 --> 02:45:15,870 drug prices rigged to have this clip. Okay. This is lawyers are 2713 02:45:15,870 --> 02:45:16,380 crooked 2714 02:45:16,440 --> 02:45:19,260 the attorneys general of 43 states filed a lawsuit today 2715 02:45:19,260 --> 02:45:21,930 accusing 19 generic drug companies and more than a dozen 2716 02:45:21,930 --> 02:45:25,950 executives of price fixing generic drugs should cost much 2717 02:45:25,980 --> 02:45:29,010 less than the brand name drugs they copy. But that is not 2718 02:45:29,040 --> 02:45:33,120 always the case. There's Bill Whitaker of 60 minutes. 2719 02:45:33,450 --> 02:45:37,260 It's an industry wide conspiracy. And I think it 2720 02:45:37,260 --> 02:45:40,680 answers one of the biggest questions all of us are asking, 2721 02:45:40,680 --> 02:45:44,640 which is why are prescription drugs so expensive? And I think 2722 02:45:44,640 --> 02:45:48,150 we know why now because the prices of generic drugs are 2723 02:45:48,150 --> 02:45:51,750 fixed. And there's a widespread conspiracy to rig the market 2724 02:45:51,780 --> 02:45:52,200 reading the 2725 02:45:52,200 --> 02:45:55,710 Connecticut Attorney General William Tong, since his office 2726 02:45:55,710 --> 02:45:59,040 found evidence of price fixing by dozens of generic drug 2727 02:45:59,040 --> 02:46:03,540 industry sales directors, Marketers CEOs dating back to 2728 02:46:03,540 --> 02:46:07,200 2006. How many drugs? Are we talking about hundreds, 2729 02:46:07,650 --> 02:46:11,790 hundreds of drugs, what kinds of drugs, every kind of drug that 2730 02:46:11,790 --> 02:46:15,960 touches our everyday lives. I'll give you an example. Bill. This 2731 02:46:15,960 --> 02:46:22,140 is my bottle of doxycycline. It is a common antibiotic that I 2732 02:46:22,170 --> 02:46:25,470 take every day for a skin condition. And there's a 2733 02:46:25,470 --> 02:46:29,280 conspiracy around doxycycline and so sitting here today as the 2734 02:46:29,280 --> 02:46:31,140 Attorney General the state of Connecticut, I'm one of the 2735 02:46:31,140 --> 02:46:31,710 victims 2736 02:46:32,310 --> 02:46:34,770 doxycycline makes kids nuts, doesn't it? 2737 02:46:35,220 --> 02:46:40,920 No, no, it's just tetracycline.

I want 2740 02:46:50,250 --> 02:46:52,980 Chelsea Manning's out I think Manning update. Nobody talks 2741 02:46:52,980 --> 02:46:54,630 about her being added J Wait 2742 02:46:54,630 --> 02:46:59,700 a minute. I saw her on. I think she was on CNN this morning.

Manning had been subpoenaed to answer questions 2749 02:47:20,490 --> 02:47:24,240 about her leak of hundreds of 1000s of secret State Department 2750 02:47:24,240 --> 02:47:27,660 and Pentagon documents to WikiLeaks, including evidence of 2751 02:47:27,660 --> 02:47:32,340 US war crimes, the grand jury ultimately disbanded. Manning's 2752 02:47:32,340 --> 02:47:35,280 freedom could be short lived. Her lawyer said in a statement, 2753 02:47:35,280 --> 02:47:38,760 she will again refuse to testify in response to a separate 2754 02:47:38,790 --> 02:47:39,510 subpoena. 2755 02:47:39,690 --> 02:47:42,720 Yeah, I'll get the get the CNN interview for Thursday.
